During COVID times there weren’t many things to do in Wasaga Beach except for hittin’ the beach. Now that it is back to normal, more events are happening and people are coming out of the woodwork. 2022 was a decent summer, but things were still slow to pick up.
With summer 2023 on the horizon and a new “tourism friendly” town hall, you can look forward to lots of cool things to do in Wasaga Beach again. Many townspeople in are looking to bring back some of Wasaga’s glory days!
First, let’s look at what is coming up for events. Then we’ll show you what’s going on around Wasaga Beach in the summer and winter. Also, we’ll point out some playgrounds for the kids!
