Join us for the 153rd Caledonia Fair!

The Caledonia Fair features the best of live entertainment, demolition derbies, exhibitions and livestock, farm animals, displays, delicious food, Midway, and more!

September 25 - 28, 2025 at the Caledonia Fairgrounds: 151 Caithness St. E., Caledonia, Ontario on the banks of the Canadian Heritage Grand River.

Check out everything inside for one low admission which helps to support our year-round activities!

As the trees light up with reds and golds, Ruthven Park becomes a quiet stopover for birds on their long journey south. Early in the morning, you might spot volunteers gently banding tiny warblers and sparrows, checking their feathers, and sending them safely on their way. It’s peaceful, a little bit magical, and a great way to feel connected to the rhythm of the season. If you visit, bring a warm jacket, a thermos of something hot, and a bit of patience—you never know what birds might show up next.

We're excited to announce the return of Open Streets on King in 2025! 

Join us for two amazing Sundays along the iconic King Street route, from John Street to Gage Avenue, where you can walk, cycle, roll and play along King Street East.

This year, we've extended the hours to 10 am to 4 pm to give you even more time to enjoy the route and all the activities and entertainment.

It's a chance to experience our city in a whole new way, promoting active living, local businesses, and community connections.

Open Streets Hamilton promotes physical activity, environmental sustainability, and social inclusion. By opening our streets to people of all ages and abilities, we create opportunities for healthier lifestyles, stronger communities, and a more vibrant city for everyone to enjoy.

The purpose of Open Streets Hamilton is to:

Promote active lifestyles 
Foster community connection 
Encourage sustainable transportation 
Support local businesses 
Enhance public space
Promote equity and inclusion

The Caledonia Farmers’ Market bringing farm-fresh goodness and old-fashioned hospitality to Caledonia. 

Come rain or shine, every Thursdays  from 2-7pm you will find  local farmers with various fresh fruits, vegetables, meats, maple syrup, honey and  specialty products  all available for your culinary pleasure.

Thursday evening from 2-7pm. Located at the Caledonia Baptist Church - 401 Argyle Street South.

Farm to Table food awaits you.
Fresh taste and excellent quality is the next best thing to harvesting it yourself!

We are delighted to present an evening with Red Dirt Skinners at The Auditorium, Hamilton, on October 2, 2025. “The Pink Floyd of Folk Music.” That’s how Roots Music Canada describes the Red Dirt Skinners — and Music News Magazine agrees, noting “an almost Floyd-like quality” to their sound. Widely regarded as one of the most innovative acts to emerge from the UK in recent years, the Skinners’ multi-award-winning music blurs genres and defies expectations. 

A Red Dirt Skinners show is built on powerful storytelling, unexpected turns, and a fearless creative spirit. If you enjoy music inspired by legends like Pink Floyd, Simon and Garfunkel, Supertramp, Queen, and David Bowie — but with its own unmistakable voice — you’ll love the Red Dirt Skinners. With male and female harmonies blending into a single, unforgettable voice, and Sarah’s soaring soprano saxophone lines, this duo delivers performances that are both refreshingly different and emotionally rich. A Red Dirt Skinners show is more than a concert — it’s a musical journey. Expect laugh-out-loud stories, thought-provoking lyrics, and songs that stay with you long after the final note. Rob and Sarah Skinner bring heart, humour, and exceptional musicianship to every performance. Don’t miss the Red Dirt Skinners — they’ll steal your heart.
