There’s something about this town that makes you want to linger. For generations, locals have called it the “Niagara-on-the-Lake Effect”, and although it’s hard to describe, you’ll feel it when you first set foot onto its historic streets.
Niagara-on-the-Lake is a true winter wonderland and the perfect place to celebrate the holiday season. Cozy up in one of our charming hotels or bed and breakfasts, or sip ice wine in one of our wineries.
Wander through picturesque villages throughout the region from Jordan to Niagara-on-the-Lake, enjoying time with friends, shopping for gifts or tasting the flavors of the season served up by our local chefs. Things heat up throughout the winter with festivals, concerts and even galas, experiences to be shared and remembered.
If you’re dreaming of a white Christmas, you won’t want to miss this classic holiday favourite. Two soldiers,
