The region has loads of festivities for you to enjoy to celebrate our amazing country!
July is a special time in Niagara. The falls are flowing at full force, farmer’s markets are back, and wine country is in full swing.
Two Nation Celebration at the Falls
Celebrate unity and national pride at the Two Nation Celebration in Niagara Falls, commemorating both Canada Day on July 1 and Independence Day on July 4.
See the Falls shine like never before with dazzling patriotic illuminations, then look to the sky as spectacular fireworks light up the night at 10 p.m., sponsored by the Niagara Falls Canada Hotel Association. The show gets even better with a soundtrack of top Canadian and American hits, perfectly synced by Kiss 98.5FM.
Join us for two unforgettable celebrations at one of the world’s most iconic natural wonders!
