One of the most anticipated events of the year is back!

Step into a world where steampunk meets magic. Gears, gadgets and enchantments abound at the extraordinary Amherstburg Uncommon Festival.

Dress up in your favorite wizardry or steampunk cosplay costume and join us for a weekend filled with fun. Expect more buskers, live performances, games, vendors & downtown businesses open to serve you and wackier – than – ever fun filled days. You will want to return every single day so you don’t miss a thing!

This year, experience the Lucky Barber Show, catch the captivating spectacle of Steve Goodtime Steampunk Opera, and be dazzled by the tricks and charm of Charming Cheat. Young wizards-in-training can enroll in the WFCU Wizard Academy, while creative minds try their hand at button making or take a swing at wacky mini-golf. Keep your eyes peeled for roaming giraffes, bathtub singer, and stilt characters wandering the streets, or test your aim with thrilling axe throwing. Enjoy festival favourites like bingo, enter or cheer on the costume contests, shop from our Uncommon vendors, and watch art come to life during live mural painting – plus countless other surprises to discover all weekend long!

Full schedule coming very soon. Stay tuned!
