34th Annual Ottawa Children’s Festival
1 Vimy Place
Ottawa
Packed with more fun than ever before, the 34th Festival features highly acclaimed shows from Ireland (They Called Her Vivaldi), Denmark (Fly), Germany (Kaschtanka), Spain (A Mano), Scotland (Is This a Dagger?), and Australia (Paper Planet), as well as Les Parfaits Inconnus, the circus performers from Québec.
This year, to celebrate creativity, inclusion and the importance of community, they are holding a contest in your community throughout April and May called #OCFRocks. Decorate and hide a rock in your local park and share a photo of it on social media, tagging us. You might win a prize! Kids who find a rock will have a chance to win, too! (We will also be placing special rocks in neighbourhood parks.) Find details at ottawachildrensfestival.ca under “Events” and “Community Contests.”
The Festival runs from May 8 to 12 at LeBreton Flats Park. Pick a show or two and head out for the day, or you can let them help you plan a magical day at the Festival – contact joni@ottawachildrensfestival.ca. For more information and to purchase tickets, go to ottawachildrensfestival.ca.
