The Niagara 2022 Canada Summer Games will bring almost 5,000 competitors (including athletes, coaches, and support personnel) to the Niagara Region from August 6th to 21st. The programme will consist of 18 different sports, including the first-ever women’s-only rugby sevens competition and the return of lacrosse to the Games after a 37-year absence (1985). The 28th iteration of the Canada Games will also be the first time in 21 years—and only the third time ever—that the competition has been held in the province of Ontario.
The Canada Games, which alternate between winter and summer every two years, are the most important amateur sporting event in the nation and the pinnacle of Canadian athlete development. These young athletes, who are among the finest in their age group, have trained arduously to be among those picked to represent their province or territory and arrive at the Games as the best in their age group.
The residents of Niagara will hospitably welcome guests from all across the country. As our streets, sky, and waterways sparkle with ceremony and celebration deserving of Canada’s top young athletes, spirited activities, stunning entertainment, and the theatre of elite competition will generate fresh energy in the area.
Between August 6 and August 21, 2022, Niagara will make a stronger-than-ever national splash. The Games will create a new legacy of aspiration, self-assurance, and compassion that will motivate future generations.

Sweet and decedant, our Niagara wineries offer a variety to try out and take home. Grapes are naturally frozen on the vine and picked when the thermometer dips to -8° C or lower. They are then handpicked and pressed immediately to gently release thick, rich, yellow-gold liquid, highly concentrated in natural sugars and acidity.
Skating at the outdoor rinks are free, and children should always be supervised by an adult. Rink status will be identified by GREEN (Open) and RED (Closed) signs. Helmets and protective safety gear are strongly recommended. Food, drinks, glass objects, and pets are not allowed on the ice.
Rinks are open daily from dawn to dusk.
