Festivals near Prairie Mall Port Coquitlam BC in Port Coquitlam, BC (5 Result(s))

The CDMF was started in 1953 on the suggestion of Beryl MacLeod (Founder). At that time the students were participating in the Kiwanis Festival in Vancouver. The parents, children and teachers were weary of driving or taking the train all the way into the city and back, often returning late at night. Beryl suggested, 'Let's put Port Coquitlam on the map and start our own festival'.
