The Wiarton Willie Festival will celebrate its 65th anniversary on February 2nd, 2021.

Organizing a Festival of this caliber takes many months, substantial manpower and an abundance of sponsorships. The Town recognizes that with COVID19 restrictions, hosting the Wiarton Willie Festival in person is simply not possible.

“As with many organized special events, we have had to “pivot” and think of ways to keep the celebration alive. With the generous help of Bruce Power, we have been planning something special to commemorate the 65th anniversary of the Festival. We hope you tune into your social media platforms and tune in to your favorite morning TV show on Groundhog Day to see this special prediction” says Mayor Jackson.
