Prince George’s annual Sunflower Festival begins tomorrow

The fourth annual Sunflower Festival kicks off in Prince George tomorrow (Thursday).

It is once again being hosted by the Northern Lights Estate Winery at Foreman Farms, about a 15-minute drive from the downtown core.

Winery owner/operator Doug Bell told MyPGNow.com the 2025 edition could be the best one yet.

“This is going to be the best year yet. We have added a bunch of new features, the photos are going to be fabulous, the flowers are the best they have ever been and we’ve added an RC Racing track where you can get your race going with these cool cars.”

He added attending during the August long weekend might be your best bet to avoid the larger crowds later on.

“We are in the middle of early bloom but I can tell you the flowers are fantastic already. Also, you might miss some of the crowds that are going to come later on in the season.”

The five-week long festival will include kid’s days and artisan craft classes, farm animals and photo stations.

The Sunflower Festival concludes on September 1st.

A full list of hours can be found here.
