Now in its 8th year, the festival will be packed with fun-filled activities to keep people excited about the various environmental activities happening in Whistler from May 25th to May 31st around the theme “Think Global; Act Local”. This timing coincides with Whistler Wellness Week, a community gathering of wellness offerings in Whistler, and will further emphasize the connection between humans’ health and the health of Mother Nature.
