Celebrate Easter Niagara Falls Style!
If you missed out on a March break vacation, maybe Easter weekend can offer another chance to get away with the whole family. Most schools give students Good Friday and Easter Monday off so why not enjoy a mini trip to Niagara Falls?
So far Niagara Falls’ weather has been very nice for this part of the year, and the upcoming forecast is calling for sunny skies and highs averaging 12c/54f on Easter weekend. Another great thing about coming to Niagara Falls for the Easter holiday is the lack of congestion. Clifton Hill: Niagara Falls’ World Famous Street of Fun, is full of year round activities, and offers many fun and exciting indoor attractions and entertainment. There are just fewer people traveling in April, which means you’ll have uninterrupted access to many different attractions, entertainment and dining venues.
A visit to the Great Canadian Midway can keep the kids busy, and the best part is you don’t have to worry about the weather because you’ll be indoors, enjoying over 300 games and amusements for wall-to-wall action the whole family will love. The Ghost Blasters Dark ride and “soon to open” XD Theater is also part of the Great Canadian Midway. Many schools include this on their class trip agenda because the kids love the huge variety of games and amusements. Ghostblasters is an interactive game where you blast targets to score points. Keep your laser gun close by because it’s up to you to take down the army of ghosts, skeletons, ghouls and goblins as you ride from room to room. It’s a lighthearted “spooky” ride with two seats so kids can ride with a parent if they need backup. Also the “soon to open” XD Theater ride will bring modern special FX technology to Clifton Hill and feature: full immersion stereoscopic imaging , realistic motion with up to 2 G’s of accelleration, special seats that bear 400 movements per second, plus intense wind and dazzling light effects!
You can also get up close to some wild prehistoric animals at the Dinosaur Adventure Golf. A jaw- dropping, 36 hole mini golf attraction that’s fun for all ages. Play near a 50-foot high “active” flame-erupting volcano, and play directly through a realistically cavernous lava tube on your way to the next hole. If the weather isn’t agreeable you can always move your game inside to Galaxy Golf’s ‘glow-in-the-dark’ indoor mini putt, which sends you on an amazing cosmic adventure over 18 holes.
Of course a stop at the Niagara SkyWheel, Canada’s largest giant wheel, is always a must. Check out some of the recent TripAdvisor reviews it has received:
“Two year olds favourite attraction”
“Our daughter digs Ferris wheels. We rode it in the daytime – we rode it at night.”
“Our daughters fave!”
“We go to the falls every September for baseball & we always go on the skywheel.”

After touring Clifton Hill and the Falls during the day, come see the energy of the Hill pick up at night with its dazzling neon lights and collection of lively activities.
