Why It Matters: Community, Culture, and the Power of Spring
Importantly, this weekend is not just about entertainment. It is also about reconnecting with what matters most—family, nature, and shared traditions. Because Easter and Earth Day fall so closely this year, event organizers have embraced a blend of celebration and sustainability.
For example, Rocky Point Park’s Earth Day festivities will include not only educational booths and live music but also interactive crafts made from upcycled materials. At the same time, cultural showcases will highlight Indigenous storytelling and music. This offers a meaningful reminder of the region’s deep roots.
As a result, families attending will not just enjoy a festive outing—they’ll also gain insight and perspective.

As one Port Moody mother shared, “Every year, my kids look forward to the egg hunt like it’s Christmas morning.”
Consequently, these events have become emotional touchstones. Especially in the post-pandemic era, they provide much-needed joy and mental relief. Furthermore, this year’s lineup includes more inclusive programming—such as sensory-friendly activity zones and multilingual performances—ensuring everyone feels welcome.
