The fun kicks off on Thursday, June 29th with the opening of the Homeniuk Midway at 11 am. The midway will stay open for a full 4 days this year, ensuring lots of fun for the kids.

Car buffs are in for a treat on June 30th as a Classic Car Show makes its Canada day debut in Barrhaven at 5 pm. Also, make sure to check out the Human Foosball tournament – always fun to watch. The day comes to a close with some great entertainment on the main stage featuring Southbound Boots, Lemon Cash and the Lionyls.

Canada Day kicks off in style with a Senior’s Pancake Breakfast presented by Viva  Barrhaven Retirement Community. This will be followed by lots of activities for our younger residents at the Kidz Zone / Kidz Zone Stage / Kidz Zone Gym.

Barrhaven Canada Day will also feature entertainment that reflects the diversity and multi-cultural fabric that makes our community such a special place to live. Expect to experience art, dance, food, and dress from many local ethnic groups on the Multi-Cultural Stage.

The Canada Day evening celebrations will feature an amazing concert featuring Arms of the Girl, Barrhaven singer/songwriter Rebecca Noelle and a return visit by the popular group Alter Ego. The highlight of the evening will be the 10 pm Fireworks show which promises to be the best one even in Barrhaven!
