EVENTS
Goderich plays host to a variety of festivals and events throughout the year. Summer and Fall welcome a number of outdoor activities for all, while Spring and Winter see the activities move indoors (for the most part). Whether you are coming to Goderich for a specific event, or just visiting on a long weekend, there will most certainly be something to do while you are here!
Goderich’s signature events are a draw to both locals and visitors. Some are homegrown by local volunteers and others are offered by the town. Many have visited from around the world and many have placed down roots as a result of enjoying the town and its offerings. From music to markets to children’s events, Goderich competes on the main stage for your entertainment.
