2026 has brought together our largest and most diverse group of exhibitor to date. Meet birding business leaders from around the world in the Bayview Room and the Dockside Room. On the weekend, the Courtyard will come to life with local non-profits and companies, sharing information and leading activities for all ages. Pop into the Uncommon Saloon for a refreshing beverage.
You can try out different binoculars from all of the major brands, find out about great cameras, and discover the world of birds with tour companies that specialize in avian adventures. Meet some amazing artists who depict birds and nature in creative and delightful ways. Drop in to an art class where you can learn to paint a feather, try out nature journalling, and more. Or work on a puzzle with other festival attendees
And you don’t need to register for the festival to participate. Just drop in.
