We invite you to join us for four days of engaging activities, delectable food, and a celebration of all things maple.

Highlights of the festival include:

  • Arts & Crafts Show

  • Bathtub Races

  • Various Concessions

  • Continuous Grandstand Entertainment

  • Historical Displays

  • Invitational Lumberjack Competition

  • Pancakes in the Park

  • Two Grand Parades

  • Pancake Eating Contest

  • Royal Pageant

  • Tug of War

  • Amusement Rides

  • Annual ‘Sap Run’.


In anticipation of the festival weekend, we invite you to participate in Tappin’ Sunday, where we will hold a ceremonial tapping of the maple tree on Chardon Square, offering attendees a chance to taste the season’s first maple stirs.

We look forward to celebrating this cherished tradition with you!
