The history and prosperity of the City of New Westminster is closely linked to the Fraser River. FraserFest celebrates one of the greatest salmon spawning rivers of the world. The Fraser Fest highlights the important role that the River played in the development of British Columbia and New Westminster, and the equally important role it still plays, as a port, as a highway for river commerce, and as a recreational resource.
