Redzone Football at KitsFest is Vancouver’s ultimate beach football experience—where competitive spirit meets laid-back summer vibes. Held annually at the iconic Kitsilano Beach, this 5-on-5 and 6-on-6 flag football tournament brings together some of B.C.’s top talent for fast-paced games set against the stunning backdrop of the Pacific Ocean.
Originally created to help a young quarterback get real-time reps under pressure, Redzone has grown into a beachside battleground for future stars and seasoned athletes alike. Past participants include some of the province’s finest—Philpots, Cummings, Roberts, Benefield, and Hennessy.
If you could mix the essence of beach volleyball, touch football, flag, and 7-on-7 passing league all in one pot—you’d get Redzone. It’s football like you’ve never seen it: dynamic, high-energy, and right in the heart of Vancouver’s summer sports festival.
But Redzone is more than a game—it’s a celebration. With crowds circling the sand-lined field, music pumping, and the energy of KitsFest in full swing, it’s a weekend where football, fun, and community collide. Whether you're competing, coaching, or just taking it all in, Redzone delivers unforgettable moments and the perfect sendoff before fall football kicks off.
