Saturday August 3rd - The Carleton Place BIA presents... 

 The Annual BIA Bridge Street Bazaar 

The Carleton Place Business Improvement Association (BIA) invites locals and out-of-towners to visit downtown Carleton Place on Saturday August 3rd from from 9 AM to 4 PM, to enjoy a summer community extravaganza. Organizers of the Annual BIA Bridge Street Bazaar hope to showcase the center of this colourful and historical town through a sidewalk shop with over a hundred vendors. Visitors can Meet Us “Downtown” On The Mississippi and have the opportunity to find bargain deals, become a street merchant themselves, and eat at waterfront pubs and restaurants, all while basking in non-stop local entertainment.

The entire downtown section of Bridge Street will be closed off to vehicular traffic to allow for a pedestrian-friendly area where both vendors and merchants alike can display and sell their wares. The full-day schedule of the sidewalk sale includes various activities and attractions - some of Carleton Place’s finest musicians, NEW mascots and dancers. Spectators will enjoy a full day of live local entertainment that will bring the sounds of pop, rock and country to the stage, as well as local buskers who will be wandering the streets performing. Entertainment in the downtown market is free of charge and full of variety.

With participation from all facets of the town including community groups, restaurants and arts programs - visitors will truly be able to immerse themselves in the Carleton Place character and discover all that the town has to offer. When the BIA works together with the Carleton Place community great events are born that work to unify the people and develop a community’s attraction and overall spirit.

REGISTER NOW to join us "Downtown" on the Mississippi for a fun filled summer festivity!
