First annual Community Chilliwack Ribfest to take place all weekend long

This weekend, the first annual ribfest is set to take place in Chilliwack.

The Community Chilliwack Ribfest, hosted by the Greater Vancouver Food Truck Festival, will bring the community together for three straight days of entertainment, fun, and, of course, ribs!

Running from Friday, July 28, through to Sunday, July 30, the festival will feature five different ribbers who will be competing for the title of the best ribs in town, including Gator BBQ, Smoke Dem Bones, Boss Hogs, Prairie Smoke and Spice, and Guerilla Q.

There will also be an additional selection of local food trucks, a beer garden, live music, and small businesses making up a marketplace of vendors to shop from.
