The 41st Annual Westfort Street Fair returns to the Westfort Village on August 19th!
This is Thunder Bay’s longest running event of its kind. It’s a full-day event, filled with shopping from neighbourhood businesses, local vendors, arts, crafts, festive food selections and live entertainment.
Presented by the Westfort Village Association, the street fair is held on Frederica Street, between Brown Street and Ford Street.
“The beloved event has an exciting lineup planned!” said Robbyn Fraser, a member of the association. “This year’s street fair will include around 100 local artists, vendors and shops from across Northern Ontario including your favourite Westfort businesses. In addition to shopping, there will be many activities for the kids from bouncycastles, train rides, petting zoo, family games and even visits from Super Mario Characters. Plus a dunk tank and 50/50 draw where all the proceeds go to support the Fort William Sea Cadets youth program."
Event organizers said they’re excited about the return of the street fair’s entertainment stage, which took a pause due to pandemic concerns. This year’s headliners will be Thunder Gun and Luke Warm and the Cold Ones. There also will be a beer tent at the entertainment stage.
The fair itself will be open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday. The entertainment stage, situated beside Westfort Foods, will be in operation from 11 a.m. to p.m. Show up early, bring cash, and wear comfortable walking shoes for enjoy a fun filled day!
