Three of Quinte West’s most popular events have been recognized among the Top 100 festivals and events in Ontario by Festivals and Events Ontario (FEO).
The Hops on the Water Craft Beer Festival, Quinte West Pop-ups, and Quinte West Presents…The Great Summer Carnival received the honour at the FEO “Synergy” Conference Awards Gala in Kitchener on Feb. 26.
The Hops on the Water Craft Beer Festival earned its third Top 100 award, celebrating local breweries, live music, and family-friendly activities.
The Quinte West Pop-ups bring small businesses, food trucks, and artisans to Centennial Park for 14 weeks each summer.
Launched in 2024, Quinte West Presents…The Great Summer Carnival transformed Bob Wannamaker Amphitheatre into a family-friendly carnival experience, earning recognition in its first year.
“These awards showcase Quinte West’s commitment to delivering exciting and memorable community events,” the City said in a statement.
