The Nanaimo Marine Fesitval officially kicks off tomorrow with the ceremonial cutting of the Official Nanaimo Marine Fesitval Cake at Quality Foods in Northridge Plaza. The public is invited to come, have a piece of cake and a Pepsi and a free Bathtub Race poster.

Four fun filled days are planned for all age groups with most activities taking place in Maffeo Sutton Park. There will be bands, singers and entertainers as well as lots of fun activities for the young and the young in heart.

There will be the 'Sailpast on Wheels' parade downtown on Saturday morning with the lineup starting at 8:30 am, parade starts at 10:30am. Come early to get a good spot and don't forget the suncreen and some water to drink.

The HMCS Nanaimo will be tied up at the visitor's pier in the harbour downtown. Don't forget the daily cannon firing at noon beside the Bastion.
