Friday, June 30th is centered on The Bash 150. Both the Peterborough Square courtyard and Millennium Park will be active throughout most of the day again, starting at 10 a.m. with art, music and magic, while finishing up with a children’s movie in the park at dusk. That’s not all though! From 4 p.m. to 10 p.m., Hunter St. W is going to rock with The Bash 150’s Street Dance event featuring Washboard Hank, The Mayhemingways, Rick Fines, Melissa Payne, and The Rocket Revue taking their turns on the stage to entertain.
July 1st is Canada’s BIG day! As always, the Canada Day Parade takes place in Downtown Peterborough beginning at noon. It runs down George Street from Murray Street to Morrow Park, so find yourself an open spot and come celebrate with the city. Our city’s annual Multicultural Day celebration is taking place at Del Crary Park from 10am-3pm. Each year, the New Canadians Centre brings together a great group of international food, craft vendors and stage performers from around the world.
They encourage you to bring your own dishes and cutlery to keep this event as Green as possible. It’s also a can’t miss opportunity to meet people from different cultures who live in our community and to learn a little bit more about them. Up earlier than that in the morning? There will be live entertainment at City Hall and Confederation Park from 9 a.m. until the parade begins at noon.
