It is officially the weekend we have all been waiting for – Summer in the City
We will be on Main Street handing out Wendy’s coupons and capturing the beauty of SITC all weekend.
There are so many activities all weekend long including rides from Wonder Shows Midway, Cultures in the City, Kids in the City, Artists in the City, Sports in the City, Patio Party, live music at Mainstage, and so much more!
Puzzler Escape Rooms has collaborated with SITC to bring a new experience to the festival. It’s their take on the Amazing Race and is designed to get players thinking on their toes as they race against the clock to win.
Gabe Verrier of Puzzler Escapes says that the race is for all ages and will take place throughout the SITC grounds.
“You will get a taste of art. You’ll get a taste of sport and skill. You’ll get a taste of fun team building. Creative, wacky ideas that we’ve come up with that will just be an all-encompassing fun hour for you and your group.”
There isn’t a specific time that the race begins, you can plan to do it when it makes the most sense for your team so you can still enjoy all your favourite parts of SITC.
“You can slate in your time when you want to play the game at a time that’s convenient for you,” says Verrier. “We highly encourage you to come down to our booth as early as you can and try to book your spot ahead.”
Puzzler Escape Rooms will have a booth in front of Giant Tiger and will be open from 4pm-8pm on Friday and 12pm-8pm on Saturday.
SITC has everything for the whole family including free rides for dad on Sunday for Father’s Day.
