Come out to Sundridge in the Almaguin Highlands north of Huntsville every year for their annual Sunflower Festival. On the third weekend in August you can enjoy live music, street dancing, outdoor movie night, food, vendors, contests, art exhibits and a triathlon.
The sunny village of Sundridge is also located near Algonquin Provincial Park, South River and it is north of Burks Falls.
The Almaguin Highlands is a great summer destination for tourist attractions, cottage rentals, private cottage rentals, campgrounds and bed and breakfast accommodations.
The Sundridge Sunflower Festival offers many things to see and do for the whole family.
The event takes place on Saturday at the festival's three main locations: Sundridge Lions Park, Main Street and the arena and fairgrounds. Each offers a lineup of events and attractions, in addition to some that will move from location to location.
Lions Park, by the lakeshore, offers a cardboard boat race, canoe races, face painting, a dunk tank, live music, face painting, free bicycle safety inspections and a barbecue hosted by the Lions Club. In Lions Hall, the Burk's Falls Arts and Craft Club will host an art show. The park also has a playground, beach, pier, boat launch and picnic tables.
Just a short distance away, on Main Street, the downtown businesses and a variety of other vendors will welcome visitors to the Main Street Market. A number of food vendors will also be on hand to satisfy whatever culinary cravings you might have, while live musicians and sidewalk chalk artists offer a feast for the eyes and ears.
In addition to these are the moving events, including the Sundridge Bugle Band, wagon rides and our town crier.
