Back by popular demand, the third annual Clean Air Festival is a COVID-safer, immuno-inclusive hybrid event that brings people together to celebrate clean air and community care. Join us online and outdoors on Sunday, September 14 from 1:00 pm - 7:00 pm for family fun including magic, music, mutual aid, prize draws and more! 

Pitch in on site to build some DIY air cleaners for vulnerable community members**, or nab free respirators, DIY fit test kits and other freebies while supplies last. Joining us on livestream? We'll have an online-exclusive prize draw, social time and games, plus the chance to enjoy all the Festival performances and more from the comfort of home!

Please note: Ticket registration is required to join the livestream. (Registered attendees are welcome to come and go during the Festival day as needed.) Registration is not required to attend in-person, but is encouraged so we can send you updates about the event. A video recording of the performances will also be released following the event.

* If you are medically unable to wear a respirator, or attending with a child under 2, please check in with the welcome table when you arrive so we can help everyone have the safest experience possible. Safety and accessibility queries are welcome by email at events[at]CleanAirFestival.ca 

** Want to build your own air cleaner (instead of helping make one for donation)? Bring your own supplies: Supply list and purchase links (flat style) |  Supply list (box style) - you can use the same purchase links as for the flat style, or order a kit.
