Can Jam Link-Up
An annual Jamaican food festival, held in Castlegar BC.
Each year we host the event in honour and support of local non-profit organizations, lunch programs for schools, inclusive summer camps for children. Part of the proceeds from the 2026 Canada Jamaica Link-up will be donated to Camp Koolaree, a non-profit kids camp in Nelson BC, and to Kootenay Emergency Response Physicians Association (KERPA).
Enjoy authentic Jamaican cuisine, live reggae music, games and other entertainment for people of all ages.
