The festivals and events of Ontario's Near North provide fun, entertainment and excitement for visitors and residents alike. 

Many of the events showcase regional talent and vibrant cultural activities.

Experiencing one event is not to have experienced all of them, as each one carries a specific element of what the Near North has to offer. 

The Near North is a short 3 ½ hour drive from Toronto or Ottawa.  For help to plan your vacation to this beautiful region, please contact the Near North office at 705.474.6634 or 1.800.387.0516.
