Canada day in port Burwell

The Port Burwell Historical Society is the proud organizer and primary sponsor of the annual Canada Day Festivities in Port Burwell. 


Our celebrations typically kick off with a parade through the streets of Port Burwell, followed by children’s activities, speeches by dignitaries representing all four levels of government, a ceremonial cake cutting, a flyover of WWII vintage Harvard aircraft, musical entertainment, free refreshments and lots of community fellowship.

    Children's Activities

    Robert Ponzio

    Local artist and educator, Robert Ponzio joined our Canada Day celebrations this year and with the help of Port Burwell's aspiring young artists created a beautiful mural highlighting the Village's many attractions.

    The Marine Museum

    During the Port Burwell Canada Day Festivities, the Marine Museum offers children's activities for our younger patrons. This year, the children made a wind sock based on the vintage Harvard aircraft that conduct the flyover highlight of the day.

    A big thank you to of our 2023 Canada Day Sponsors
