Welcome back to the 4th annual Porchside Festival! Join us this July for a series of captivating shows set against the charming backdrop of historic homes in Collingwood.

As we gather on porches rich with stories, we celebrate the resilience of the human spirit and the power of the arts to bring us together.

Born in 2020 as a response to the challenges of the pandemic, Porchside Festival has become a beloved tradition in our community. Guided by Erica, Theatre Collingwood’s executive director, we ventured outdoors to discover new ways to connect and entertain ourselves safely. Now, we invite you to experience the magic of live performance in the open air, where every show begins with the fascinating tales of these remarkable porches.

Come be a part of something special. From riveting theatrical productions to soul-stirring musical performances, there is something for everyone! Whether you find yourself enraptured by a stirring drama or swaying to the melodies of live music, the shared experience of gathering with friends, family, and neighbours fosters a sense of belonging that transcends the confines of time and space.

Let’s celebrate creativity, resilience, and the joy of gathering together. Join us at Porchside Festival, where history meets art, and memories are made under the summer sky.
