The much-anticipated Upbeat Fest is back this year, promising to be bigger and better than ever. Running from December 13 to January 4, the holiday event at Upbeat Recreation Centre is expected to attract over 15,000 attendees, offering a range of exciting activities for families, adventure enthusiasts, and holiday seekers.

Last year’s festival saw more than 13,000 visitors participating in a variety of adventure games, live entertainment, and children’s holiday activities. The event earned praise for its safe environment, diverse attractions, and inclusive programming that catered to all age groups, from children to adults.

For 2024, Upbeat Fest promises an even more enhanced experience:

• Additional games and attractions will be added to keep things fresh and exciting.
• More family zones have been included, making it even easier for visitors of all ages to enjoy the festival together.

One of the standout features of the festival is the Santa Grotto, which will return with new features aimed at creating unforgettable holiday moments for young visitors.
