Join us for Amateur Radio Field Day 2026, the largest amateur radio operating event in North America, taking place June 27–28 located at Blue Mountain Park in Coquitlam.
Field Day is part emergency preparedness exercise, part technology showcase, and part community event. Amateur radio operators across Canada and the United States will set up temporary stations and test their ability to communicate under simulated emergency conditions.
Whether you’re a licensed operator, curious about radio communications, interested in emergency preparedness, or simply looking for a unique family-friendly activity, we’d love to meet you.
Come see:
Live amateur radio stations in action
Communications across Canada and around the world
Emergency and portable radio equipment
Digital communications technology
Local volunteers demonstrating how amateur radio supports communities when other systems fail
Hosted by the Coquitlam Amateur Radio Emergency Services Society (CARESS)
June 27–28, 2026 – BLUE MOUNTAIN PARK, Coquitlam BC
Stop by, ask questions, get on the air, and discover why amateur radio remains one of the most resilient communication systems ever developed. We will be setup by the tennis courts at BLUE MOUNTAIN PARK, Coquitlam BC.
When everything else fails, amateur radio still works.
