LUPERCALIA ARTS & CULTURE FESTIVAL AND REEL FILM FESTIVAL ADDED TO OWEN SOUND CULTURE PACKAGE

We've added some new features to our mid-winter culture package! Now you can choose between a live show at the Roxy Theatre, a performance by the Georgian Bay Symphony, tickets to the Reel Film Festival or a pass to the Lupercalia Winter Arts Festival.

With each option, enjoy an overnight stay at one of our premier hotels plus a pair of passes to the Tom Thomson Art Gallery and Grey Roots Museum & Archives -- all for the unbeatable price of $199 per couple, plus taxes (a savings of up to $100).

Choose from one of the following productions:

The Devil’s Disciple – Roxy Theatre – Feb. 2-4, 8-11
Lupercalia Arts & Culture Festival – Feb. 17 &18
Owen Sound Reel Festival (2 Films) – Tom Thomson Art Gallery – Feb. 25-26
Amelia Curran – Roxy Theatre – Mar. 2
Babes of Broadway – Georgian Bay Symphony – Mar. 3
40th Anniversary Russian Spectacular – Georgian Bay Symphony – Apr. 28

Don't miss this opportunity to beat the February blahs and enjoy a mini vacation -- or staycation -- in Owen Sound.

Combine your visit with a waterfalls tour or ski, skate or snowshoe in the area. Shop downtown and enjoy our year-round farmer's market, open every Saturday morning. 

Bookings can be made through the Day’s Inn Hotel (519-376-1551) or Best Western Inn on the Bay (519-371-9200).
