Visitors are drawn to Guelph’svibrant lifestyle, its cultural and historical festivities, recreational opportunities

and an abundance of natural spaces. Creative cultural tourism has emerged

from Guelph’s vital heritage, arts and cultural assets and is based on the

idea of off ering authentic experiences to our visitors. Nationally known

festivals such as the Guelph Jazz Festival and Hillside Festival are just a

few examples of the exciting events that Guelph is home to.

The University of Guelph is a renowned destination within itself, and is

home to thousands of students and faculty who call Guelph home year

round. Alumni Stadium now boasts a new synthetic fi eld and eight

lane, international caliber track and fi eld events facility. We are happy to

welcome CFL fans to Guelph in 2013/2014 when the Hamilton Ti-Cats

temporarily move home games to Gryphon’s Alumni Stadium!

Guelph’s Downtown has undergone a major transformation in the last

3 years. Visitors can now experience:

• An inter-modal transit terminal designed to improve connections

between Guelph’s local bus service and regional public transit systems

including Greyhound, GO Transit and VIA Rail.

• Market Square which provides an expansive setting for civic and

cultural events right outside City Hall, along with ice skating in the

winter and a splash pad in the summer!

• A Civic Museum clustered with a National Historic Site,

Church of Our Lady Immaculate
