For the 15^th year in a row, the Tecumseh Corn Festival was named one of the Top 100 Festivals in Ontario by Festivals & Events Ontario! And that’s no easy task! The top 100 list is comprised of some of the most well-known and respected celebrations in the province and ones that draw an international and domestic audience. The 43^rd annual Tecumseh Corn Festival takes place August 24-26 and the town has no shortage of fun activities to offer visitors and residents alike.

Not only can you chow down on fresh local corn, take in the classic car show, vendor market, Miss Tecumseh Pageant or a variety of fun contests, but you can also take in the parade on Saturday, August 25^th at 11am (Parade starts at the intersection of McNorton Street and Lesperance Road).
