Description

The Port Hope Salmon Festival is a scenic Ontario tradition celebrating the dramatic salmon migration along the Ganaraska River. Running from mid-August through mid-October, this seasonal event draws visitors to Corbett’s Dam and the fish ladder where Chinook and Coho salmon can be seen leaping upstream in an incredible natural display. Beyond the wildlife spectacle, the festival offers a full experience in historic Port Hope, with riverside walking trails, local shops, food vendors, and family-friendly activities creating a welcoming small-town atmosphere. Weekends are the highlight of the season, bringing crowds together to enjoy live entertainment, community events, and the vibrant energy of downtown. #gozeeit #thingstodo #thingstodoinporthope #salmonfestival #ontarioevents #familyfun #natureexperience #fallactivities #exploreontario #canadaevents
