Youth Events
From conferences to festivals, discover exciting annual youth events held throughout Surrey each year.
SASSY Awards
The SASSY Awards (Service Above Self Surrey Youth) is Semiahmoo Rotary’s celebration and recognition of the fantastic youth who live, work, volunteer, and learn in Surrey and White Rock.

Youth Cooking Showdown
Taking place in July at the Fusion Festival, the Youth Cooking Showdown sees youth competing in a head-to-head culinary battle to impress our all-star panel of judges. Youth must work successfully with their team in order to create a dish that incorporates a secret ingredient in order to be crowned the Cooking Showdown Champion.
Surrey Rides
Surrey Rides is an exciting annual event held throughout the summer to celebrate Surrey’s vibrant skate community with a range of contests, jams and demos for youth enthusiasts of skateboarding, scootering, and BMX. Be part of the “try it series” and show your support as 100 young people build confidence and their skills in a fun and engaging environment.
Band-aid
Held each fall, local youth singers, songwriters, solo artists, bands and DJs receive development and mentorship.
