VIDEO: Home show delights thousands at fairgrounds in Maple Ridge

Attendance up this year despite weather

The rain held off on Sunday for the final day of the Ridge Meadows Home Show where thousands of people were entertained at the free Family Festival or received renovation tips from the exhibitors inside.

Executive director Graham Vanstone was pleased with the attendance this year, event though the fair was hampered by rain on Saturday.

“Our attendance was up 10 per cent yesterday, in spite of the weather,” said Vanstone as he welcomed people to the Albion Fairgrounds for the final day.

Magicians Norden and Gordon teamed up to entertain the crowds at the Family Fest stage on Sunday. Shine Bright Studio presented Seussical the Musical and there was also a performance by Blue Crane Contortion and Acrobatics.

Children enjoyed crafts and mini golf at the Family Fest, in addition to a free foam pit.

Food trucks lined the fairgrounds and hundreds of exhibitor booths packed both Planet Ice and the Golden Ears Winter Club.
