Salmon play an integral role for coastal livelihoods, cultures, and ecosystems on the west coast. Celebrating this magnificent species is what inspires Friends of Clayoquot Sound (FOCS) to organize the annual Clayoquot Salmon Festival!

This year, FOCS is teaming up with the Festival of What Works presented by Salmon Nation for a week of FREE online events to celebrate salmon and what is working to protect the greater salmon bioregion. The festival will host over 40 free events, with 7 events curated specifically for the Clayoquot Salmon Festival. The Clayoquot Salmon Festival X Festival of What Works collaboration will run between Sunday, November 15 – Sunday, November 22.
