Council invites participation from the local business community, organizations and residents to volunteer for roles on the newly established Nautical Days Festival Committee. 

As Comox Nautical Days Festival continues to grow in popularity and significance, Council is seeking volunteer committee members who provide high-level oversight and strategic direction while also making recommendations to the Council and the event organizers for the annual community celebration.

Regular meetings will be held quarterly, with additional meetings scheduled as needed during the peak planning periods.      

“This is an excellent opportunity for individuals to contribute their skills, ideas, and passion to a festival that brings so much joy to our community,” said Comox Mayor Nicole Minions. “We welcome diverse perspectives and backgrounds to sit on this committee and those who are energized to contribute to the festival’s continued success.”
