- Campbell River Festival of Film continues with “Burt’s Buzz” at the Tidemark Theatre at 7pm. Famous for its all-natural, personal care items, ‘Burt’s Bees’ has become a household name in many parts of the world. The company built a might reputation as a producer of eco-friendly products made from simple ingredients and in the process it has become a billion-dollar business. But less well-known is the eccentric man behind the brand, whose bearded face still graces many of its labels. Rated G.

A great Canadian musical treasure! Licensed event (19+). www.tidemarktheatre.com
