The Town of Collingwood, Ontario, is holding a flag-raising ceremony at the community flagpole on March 11, 2026, to recognize Irish Heritage Month. Starting at 2:00 PM, the event is open to all residents as a way to celebrate the history and culture of the Irish community.

The ceremony takes place at the flagpole located at the public library on Ste. Marie Street. This gathering is meant to honour the local residents of Irish heritage who have contributed to the growth and character of the town.

This event is a local observance of the national Irish Heritage Month, which takes place across Canada every March. The town frequently uses this public space to host ceremonies that recognize the various backgrounds of its citizens.

All community members are encouraged to attend the short event to show support for their neighbours. It serves as a moment of civic recognition to highlight the lasting impact of Irish heritage on the local landscape.
