Steve Vesely, FunFair Chair
Thanks to everyone who helped make the 2024 Blackburn FunFair a successful event – our hard working volunteers, our financial sponsors, our attraction and event partners and our community – who came out to enjoy the festivities.
Your community spirit helped raise a record amount of money enabling our fair volunteers to give back $19,800 to local non profit Blackburn community groups, organizations and associations through our Honorarium Distribution Program.
Next year’s fair will run June 6-8, 2025 and we hope to see you back!
Interested in getting involved? Reach out to chair@blackburnfunfair.ca for more information.
