Volunteer for 2027
The festival is 100% volunteer-run. A few hours over the weekend goes a long way.

Thank you, Ladysmith
Over the weekend, you filled the beach and downtown. Ladysmith Days 2026 is over, and it was a good one.
Another great weekend, hosted by a great town
We had hours of concerts, games and activities across the weekend — bands playing into the evening, kids running between events, and a whole lot of people out on the street who hadn't seen each other in a while.
Thank you to Ladysmith for hosting us again. Thank you to the volunteers who set up early and stayed late, to the crews who kept the venues running, and to every family who showed up.
We'll be back for the August long weekend in 2027.
Thank you, 2026 sponsors
