Join us in Madeira Park for the 81st annual May Day celebrations on May 16th, 2026!As the longest running event on the Sunshine Coast, BC, May Day is a popular event in the community and we welcome visitors from around the world to join us in Pender Harbour to celebrate.
The day kicks off with a 4KM Fun Run, Kids Fishing Derby and Pancake Breakfast, followed by a parade through Madeira Park at 11AM and a day filled with games, music and good times.
2026 THEME: Mardi Gras Street Party 💚💜💛
With the school field closed, we’re taking things to the streets—literally. This year’s celebration will be a full-on street party and a massive community gathering, honouring Pender Harbour’s longboarding legacy and celebrating the final chapter of an incredible 25-year run of Attack of Danger Bay.
While most of your favourite traditions will still be part of the day, things will look a little different, so stay tuned for updates and details.
