You’ll always find something to celebrate in Windsor! The “Rose City” offers festivals and fun in every season.

Let the Travelodge Windsor hotel be your comfort headquarters for experiencing all the festivals in Windsor.

Festival Epicure is a taste adventure, offering food and wine from 29 first-class vendors. Restaurants off taster portions and full meals, while wineries offer sample servings and wines by the glass. This festival has more than just food - live R&B, Pop, Blues, Bluegrass and Jazz music are served up all weekend.

Blues lovers will enjoy the four day Blues Fest International, which pays tribute to the blues genre while presenting local, regional and international musicians in a riverside venue. You also won’t want to miss the big barbecue competition that pits American and Canadian teams against each other for the best BBQ title.

A four day community festival recognizes Olde Sandwich Towne’s position as the longest continuous European settlement in Ontario. The festival brings together the entire community with parades, tours of 31 historic buildings, sidewalk and yard sales, children’s activities, and fireworks. Enjoy boat shows, live music, and street vendors as part of one of Windsor’s most charming festivals.

The premier Windsor festival, and perhaps one the biggest festivals in Canada, is the Windsor-Detroit International Freedom Festival. The River Days of Windsor lead up to what is by tradition the world’s largest fireworks display. More than a million visitors flock to the two cities of Windsor and Detroit to celebrate the national holidays of both countries. Before and after the famous fireworks, the Windsor side of the festival offers midway activities, boat races, and more.
