Who doesn't like a good weekend party? It's a chance to park your troubles back at the office, leave that to-do list on the fridge and just relax. You can get away from it all and try a little something new. Cobourg has all kinds of diversions and our special occasion festivals bring out the locals and visitors just for fun. No daytimer required.
While you may want to lounge on the gorgeous sandy beach and bone up on some vitamin D, Cobourg beach also has volleyball tournaments, triathlon finishes and a Sandcastle Festival in August to show off competitors' architecture and sand pail constructions skills.
This is where you want to be Canada Day weekend! Skip the noise and traffic of the city and enjoy Cobourg's annual Waterfront Festival. The lakeshore is a scenic backdrop to the Canadian arts and crafts tents, entertainers and a carnival midway along the pier. You can watch the parade of floats and marching bands down the historic main street, have free Canada Day cake in Victoria Park, and bring a lawn chair or beach blanket for the fireworks display over the harbour at dusk.
Try haggis and chips and other traditional Scottish delicacies at the Cobourg Highland Games in June. You'll be seeing tartan with the marching pipe bands, Highland dancers, and traditional strongman competitions

Everyone else was building
a castle. So I thought, hey,
why not a big,old dragon
to shake things up?
