Sarnia Bayfest is an annual music festival in Centennial Park - downtown Sarnia, Ontario, Canada - that takes place in July each year.
Since 1999, Sarnia Bayfest has grown from attracting a few thousand visitors to approximately 70,000.
The festival involves and benefits a number of charities and capitalizes on the hometown feeling and the festival environment. However, several local residents living in and around the park have made complaints with regard to noise, garbage, drunkenness and public urination.
