Caledonia Fair Celebrates 153 Years of Community Spirit, Family Fun, and Country Charm
September 25–28, 2025 | Caledonia Fairgrounds
One of Ontario’s longest-running and most beloved fall fairs returns this September as the Caledonia Fair marks its 153rd year of bringing families, farmers, and fairgoers together for four days of tradition, entertainment, and fun.
Held at the historic Caledonia Fairgrounds from September 25 to 28, the fair promises something for everyone—from high-energy shows to agricultural roots, homemade pie contests to thrilling midway rides. The 2025 edition is packed with new features and returning favourites that reflect both the rural heart of the community and the evolving tastes of today’s families.
This year’s entertainment lineup includes daily performances by the Global Pet Foods SuperDogs, the record-breaking illusions of Lucas Wilson, and the acrobatic antics of The Hockey Circus Show. Visitors can step back in time with the 80s fire-and-hoop spectacle of Kiki Totally Outrageous, or enjoy live country music from rising Canadian stars Kendra Gabrielle and Carson Janik.
Of course, it wouldn’t be the Caledonia Fair without celebrating its agricultural roots. The Exhibition Hall will showcase the talents of local bakers, crafters, growers, and youth competitors with over $60,000 in prizes up for grabs. Livestock barns will be open daily, giving visitors a chance to meet farm animals up close and learn about life on the land.
More than 100 vendors will fill the fairgrounds with unique local goods and handmade crafts, while 30+ food stalls serve up everything from kettle corn and mini donuts to towering ice cream sundaes. The World’s Finest Shows Midway returns as a crowd favourite, with classic rides and games for all ages—including a Pay-One-Price ride night on Thursday.
Daily admission ranges from $10–$15 at the gate, with advance tickets just $13 available online until September 10. Children in grades K–8 get in free on Thursday and with discounted entry the rest of the weekend. Parking is free, and a complimentary shuttle will run between Gateway Church and the fairgrounds on Friday and Saturday.
The Caledonia Fair continues to offer an inclusive, affordable, and welcoming experience for all—with accessible facilities, free caregiver admission, and family-friendly programming throughout.
