Enjoy theatre? Attend an entertaining and skilled production staged by the talented members of the Thorold Community Theatre. Fond of concerts? Relax in a beautiful and historic park, watch the setting summer sun and listen to the melodious sounds of Canada's oldest community ensemble, the fifty-piece Thorold Reed Band. Love music festivals? Visit Thorold in October and absorb the energy of the Canal Bank Shuffle, a three -day Blues celebration that swings into town and takes the City by storm. On any given evening, Thorold's nightclubs, bars and pubs come alive with electricity and excitement. In the night air, the sounds of rooting sports fans, eclectic music and friends enjoying good cheer can be heard.
