Thanks to our vendors!

Our (ever-increasing!) army of volunteers is what makes the festival happen and truly breathes life into people's experiences with CVAF. There is literally nothing on earth we could ever say or do that would live up to our actual appreciation…

Thank you for another year!

Honestly, every time I think that we've created the best festival ever, and we couldn't possibly get any better, we end up topping ourselves. Yet again, I'm pretty sure this was the best festival we've ever had! The credit for that goes to our…

Street Fair Map Updated!

We are a little late this year in updating the site (many curses upon technology for failing once again), but the Street Fair Map has been updated on the map page: https://cvaf.ca/about/street-map/   Check out the record breaking…

Event Schedule Launched!

The Cathedral Village Arts Festival gets bigger and better every year, and this year is no exception! With TWO music venues in Holy Rosary Park, the Street Fair extended to 6 PM (yes! Thanks for the feedback!), and SO MANY EVENTS that we…

Don’t Be Fooled!

Someone has posted a fake Cathedral Village Arts Festival page and is selling fake Street Fair booth spaces to people! Please note that the ONLY way to apply for a CVAF Street Fair booth is through the CVAF website. If you are on a supposed…

We’re BACK

The wind may blow, but art never sleeps! The applications for Street Fair Vendors, Musicians, and Volunteers are now OPEN! We're still tinkering away on our website, so you may see a different look, but we'll be ready to launch momentarily…

Hey, THANKS for your support!

It takes a literal army of volunteers to make the Cathedral Village Arts Festival run, from the people cutting your hotdog buns at the picnic to the people picking up trash after the festival is all over. It is a literal miracle that this festival…

Art is… NEVER OVER

The festival may have wrapped up with a huge bang, but we are never done creating beautiful things! We couldn't have created THIS beautiful thing, CVAF 2025, without the outstanding and incredible help of our army of volunteers, 60% of whom…

I will survive! Hey hey!

Tomorrow is our Saturday Street Fair to help cap off an incredible week of events - I can't believe that we get to have this much cool stuff crammed into such a short period of time. 2024's street fair was estimated to have 50,000 attendees…

Tell us what you think!

What is growth without some feedback? The festival has launched a survey to hear directly from the people who volunteer, participate, organize, and sell at our festival. Tell us how we are doing, and give us some feedback so that we can grow…

CVAF 50/50 Raffle – Support the Festival and Potentially Win!

We're hip, we're cool, we're trying something new! This year, we are launching the CVAF 50/50 raffle - you can buy your tickets online, or you might see one of our volunteers out during the picnic, festival, and street fair with 50/50 machines.…

Dogs can play poker, but they don’t belong at CVAF

We at the Cathedral Village Arts Festival LOVE DOGS (check out the cuties that will adoptable at Funville thanks to Rez Dogs!) but we have found that dogs have a really hard time at our events - especially the parade, picnic, and street fair.…
