A NIAGARA TRADITION
In its 48th year, the Ball’s Falls Thanksgiving Festival is a Niagara Tradition that runs October 7th through October 10th. (10am to 5pm)

This Thanksgiving, come enjoy a classic Niagara Tradition at the 2022 Ball's Falls Thanksgiving Festival! Guests will enjoy a classic family favourite, a longstanding Niagara Tradition, and a great way to spend the holiday season.

The 48th Annual Ball's Falls Thanksgiving Festival will feature many of your favorites, including 150+ artisan and craft crafters, delicious food, handcrafted drinks and wines, local farmers' market vendors, live acoustic music, children's activities, historical demonstrations, heritage tours and nature hikes.

While experiencing the sights, sounds, and smells of the Thanksgiving Festival and exploring the colourful forested trails, take in the beauty of the fall along the Niagara Escarpment.

The 2022 Thanksgiving Festival offers a wonderful opportunity for visitors to hike trails, take a heritage village tour, admire the wonderful scenery and waterfalls, and support local business owners and artisans.

It is particularly significant for this year, as the Festival allows people to shop online in advance and in person over Thanksgiving Weekend, celebrating and supporting local artisans, crafters, farmers, vendors, and small businesses that have been significantly impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic.

In order to provide a safe and enjoyable experience for all attendees and vendors, the Festival adheres to all provincial and local COVID-19 regulations and public health guidance.

The first Thanksgiving Festival was held at Ball’s Falls Conservation Area in 1974. The intention was simple: to raise money for conservation and environmental programs that were not otherwise funded. This remains the purpose of the Festival today. From its humble beginnings as a one-day craft show, the event has become a family tradition.
