Sponsorship Information:

The Creston Valley is one of the most important bird habitats in Canada with over 300 species recorded. Since 2013, the Creston Valley Bird Fest has celebrated the birds, the arts, and the agriculture of the Creston Valley.

With your sponsorship, you will contribute to one of the most popular annual events in the Creston Valley. Visiting participants support local accommodations, art studios, farms, and businesses in the valley.
