Everyone is welcome to the 28th Annual Tlell Fall Fair, “The Earliest Fall Fair in British Columbia”.

Are you wondering why a fall fair is in August? It is quite simple. The Fair used to be held in the Fall, but, more often than not it would be wet or rainy. So, we checked the almanac and the local farmers and ranchers and found the Sunday before BC Day is the prime time for the weather, and there you have it, a fall Fair in the summer.

We had a real good turn out last year and we are hoping to surpass that this year.

For those of you that don’t know. We are and will always be a small country style Fair on the Haida Gwaii in the Community of Tlell. Tlell has been the Farming centre of the Islands for over a century. The Tlell Fall Fair is where people can have their Animals, Handi-crafts, Baking and Garden Produce judged at provincial standards. There are also, product and food vendors, information booths, kid’s games and live music throughout the day.

Check out our Entertainment page to see who is coming this year.

Our Mandate is to

· Educate everyone about Agriculture and Aquaculture of the Queen Charlotte Islands

· Provide a safe family oriented venue, for everyone to come together and enjoy meeting with old and new friends, and,

· HAVE FUN!
