Hello everyone! We are 6 weeks out from the Peace Fibre Fest... and right in the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic. Given the postponement of some of the major Canadian fibre fests lately, we thought we'd give you all an update.
As of today, we are still planning on going forward with the Peace Fibre Fest -- but that could change. We don't want to cancel the event unless absolutely necessary, since I know that it will affect a lot of the vendors and attendees planning to travel here, but we also don't want to contribute to the spread of the virus.
We're keeping a very close eye on news from the World Health Organization and government recommendations; yesterday the B.C. government asked event planners to cancel all events with over 250 attendees, and Alberta has also recommended the same precaution. We are hoping these and other restrictions will prove effective and will be lifted before April 26th.
That being said, if we do need to cancel the event we will do it more than 2 weeks in advance so that people are able to cancel travel plans, hotel reservations, etc.
If you have any questions, we'll do our best to answer them as soon as possible!
