Frequently Asked Questions
Will there be food this year?
Yes! Friday night, BBQ's will be available, bring your own grill-ables. We will be providing free cold breakfast (granola, oat milk, coffee, etc) on Saturday morning. There will also be food for sale Saturday evening with local food truck PoutineShack Co. As well as a snack concession.
Can I bring my own alcohol?
No. Because SWC has registered a liquor license for the beer gardens Friday and Saturday no outside alcohol is allowed on site.
What if I just want to join the river runs but don't want to join the party at Tatlow?
Members of the SWC are welcome to join for the river runs without paying the Tatlowfest registration fee.
What happens if I don't get a camp site?
We have space for ~ 20 campsites. We are hoping that this will be enough space for everyone who needs one.
