You deserve to be here!

If—when you think of Elora and Fergus— you think of the dramatic beauty of the Elora Gorge, world class festivals, a haven of arts and culture, all with a heritage river running through it, well, you’d be right. You’d also be right thinking of summer music festivals on the banks of the Grand, an outdoor adventurer’s dream, and home to arguably the prettiest farmers’ market in Ontario.

Elora and Fergus are places where the past proudly meets the present; where our cultural diversity underlies how we honour past glories and create modern traditions.

Start with our parades—from the gathering of the ghouls during a hauntingly happening Hallowe’en month, to the historic Canada Day parade, to the majestic Elora Horse and Hound parade (pictured above), with all its pomp and ceremony.

From art to adventure, music to monsters, thoroughbreds to bread baking, fine food to fly-fishing, come experience Elora and Fergus for yourself. It really is what you imagine, and so much more!
