About Cornfest
Organized by the Taber and District Chamber of Commerce, Cornfest is the largest free family festival in western Canada, held on the last full weekend in August before the long weekend. This event brings visitors from near and far!
There's something for everyone at this event, from the midway, music, fun run, chili cook-off, show and shine, corn eating, fireworks, and so much more!
The sweetness and flavour of Taber corn is due to the large number of days of bright sunshine we receive in the Taber area.
Cornfest Is the Place to Be
Just off Highway #3, the main action for Cornfest happens in Confederation Park at 50th Avenue and 50th Street. But don't forget to head to downtown Taber to spend some time at our local businesses and see how everyone gets into the spirit of Cornfest!
