It appears that the 2025 edition of the Summer Sizzler was a smash hit.
Partnering up with Living Skies in the final weekend of June, it was a big crowd at the Uniplex grounds.
Around 3,000 people attended the festivities of the Summer Sizzler throughout the weekend, which is an increase from the prior year. The attendance numbers don’t include the spectators at the Living Skies Festival.
Event Services Manager Amelia Hillier was pleased with this year’s Summer Sizzler.
“Combining the summer Sizzler with the Living Skies Music Festival was a great success. The events complemented each other really well and created an even better experience for everyone who attended.”
On a toasty Canada Day, there were around 1,000 visitors to Civic Park, for an afternoon of entertainment which included bouncy castles, petting zoo, dino puppets and more.
Hillier says the planning is underway for the 2026 edition of the Summer Sizzler and hopes that they can build off this year’s festivities.
