Canada Day Celebrations

It’s sure to be an exciting weekend, with a number of Canada Day celebrations happening throughout the city. For full details, visit discoversudbury.ca/events.

GOVA Transit will provide a Canada Day Celebration shuttle service to Science North. Buses will depart the Downtown Transit Hub and Southridge Mall (TSC Hardware entrance) every 30 minutes from 11:45 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Fare is $1 per person and includes the return trip. Connecting service to other parts of the city will depart from the Downtown Transit Hub.

An open-air fire ban will remain in effect in Greater Sudbury through the long weekend, and fireworks will not be permitted. This means Science North will not have fireworks as part of its celebration. While recent precipitation provided some relief, there has not been enough rain to significantly reduce the risk of a forest fire.
