The annual Fort Malden Medieval Faire is returning to Amherstburg, Ontario, from June 12 to June 14, 2026, with more vendors and a larger event area for local families. This year, the festival is growing its footprint at the historic grounds to provide more space for activities and historical entertainment.
The event is hosted by Parks Canada at the former British fortification and includes medieval-themed performances such as jousting and comedy. These historical demonstrations are a major draw for regional tourists and residents visiting the Fort Malden National Historic Site.
While the historic site begins offering free admission for the summer on June 19, 2026, organizers note that special event fees apply for the weekend festival. According to Faires.ca, the expansion aims to offer a wider variety of vendors and activities compared to previous years.
