For me, Sunfest is THE festival that starts off summer and festival season in London. With great…read moremusic, awesome food, and unique vendors, this festival is full of fun for everyone. There were lots of different local food options at this festival. From your typical festival food (fries, funnel cakes, etc), to Indian, Thai, and even Ethiopian. There was plenty of healthier options if that is more your taste. Keep in mind, the food section was rammed during dinnertime. Lots of lines and people trying to get through. It isn't easy and can be frustrating. There are multiple stages scattered throughout the park which offer a wide variety of music styles all weekend. I got to see a bit of Five Alarm Funk and the Samba Squad, both really great acts. People were dancing and having a great time. I really love the vendors at Sunfest. There are a lot from the Toronto area which adds a bit of variety in comparison to other festivals in Victoria Park. There are still tons of local vendors too which is nice because there are a ton of locally made products available. I don't get out to the markets as much as I should so its nice to see their wares displayed in the park. While this festival is super busy, it brings a welcome, positive buzz to the downtown core. Good vibes all around, I highly recommend!

The Ilderton Fair Board year round work toward an annual event that has been going for a long time…read more In 2011 the Ilderton Fair had its 160th anniversary. The Fair is a big event over multiple days. It typically runs on a Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday near the end of September or beginning of October. The fair has a nice website that lists the activities that happen on the various days. That website is listed in the above information section. A non-exhaustive list of activities: o Afternoon Entertainment - local bands, talent competitors o Ambassador, Prince & Princess - the winner represents Ilderton at the CNE in Toronto o Demolition Derby - cars that smash into each other in a sort of automobile sumo wrestling match o Firemen's Breakfast - great value for your money, get bacon/ham/sausage/eggs etc served by volunteers o Midway - lots of rides of the tilt-a-whirl sort to turn your stomach in different directions o Parade - favourite of thousands of kids and kids at heart. The streets are lined by onlookers as floats created by volunteers ride through the heart of downtown Ilderton o Agricultural Exhibits - The Ilderton Agricultural Society, 4-H Club and others keep every year fresh with various displays o Animal Displays - The Horse Shows bring in competitors from around Ontario. Mutton Busting is small children riding sheep - its a must see full of laughs. The Calf Scramble is young adults attempting to wrestle/coral aggressive cows. Come on over to Ilderton. From London's downtown via automobile, take Richmond north to Oxford. Then take Oxford west until Hyde Park Road. Take Hyde Park Road about 15 minutes drive until you get to Ilderton Road. Take Ilderton Road west until you can find a place to park.

My boyfriend and I came here to attend a London Majors vs. Barrie Baycats game. The park was a bit…read moretricky to get to in the downtown area and parking on the narrow streets was even trickier. The day we arrived, it was overcast and a bit rainy but we were happy there was a large covered seating area where we could take shelter when it started raining. Most of the seats had a good view of the field. The entry and exit was easy to get to. One point of interest was a huge nest on top of the lights where a bird kept bringing food back and forth to its nest. During the game there was fun activities where kids could run the bases and also some giveaways from a Domino's pizza mascot. It was a fun way to spend the afternoon.

Labatt Park is considered Canada's and arguably the world's oldest continuously operating baseball…read morepark. It is an absolute gem and located right at the forks of the Thames. I actually grew up in the area and have spent countless nights watching the London Majors play baseball - which is a lot of fun and surprisingly affordable. They also host free movie nights and other special events from time to time. The field is maintained in pristine condition by the City of London, as a tribute to players past and present; a true community treasure. The park is used constantly and for the past 134 years has been the home of minor, senior and professional baseball and is still home to the London Majors. If you've never been to a game - go. Admission is like seven dollars and you can get a beer for five or six bucks and a hot dog for a few more. My boys and I go to at least a few games each season and I hope to increase that number dramatically this year. A fun and affordable night out for the entire family and just a wonderful setting. PLAY BALL!

What a fun and nostalgic experience!…read more Be sure to arrive early enough to park and visit the concession stand. The concession stand is clean and has a pretty good selection of snacks.

This was my first time at the London Wine & Food Show. I went on Saturday night with my boyfriend,…read moreand boy was it packed! I kept checking the Twitter updates from Western Fair District to see if there were still tickets available, knowing they were limited. It was packed on Saturday, but we had fun walking around and trying the different beers and wines. I'm not much of a beer and wine drinker, so my boyfriend had the majority of the samples, but I did try some of the Ciders and Ice Wine that was offered, which were delicious! My favourite booth for sampling had to be the Quay Du Vin; they offered a delicious maple ice wine and a sample of cheese!! There were not as many food samples as I would've hoped there to be, but it was still enjoyable nonetheless. I can't wait to go back back next year, hopefully they will have more of a food selection as well as Ciders!

Nick S. - to you and everyone else that plays/played here or at virtually…read more any hall. (Because I was there and saw what transpired, and you should remove your review because your statements are purely liablous.) When you play on a table you should know not to have your beverages or food over the cloth, put objects on the table or do anything that may damage the equipment. A staff member approached you (any one should be able to inform you of this basic ettiquette) and politely asked you to keep your drink back from the table and the reason why. You became immediately confrontational - Why? Who are You? Are you "even" staff? They informed you of all this.... You then decided to amp up needlessly situation and you know all the other things that you and your party did and I'm not going to get into that... The staff at Strokers are excellent and everyone is welcome there, and many people from many different nationalities and walks of life play there - what it boils down to is that you had a chip on your shoulder and instead of just accepting the staffs request you decided to take offense and then double down on that, saying it was due to race - and that is just disgusting. I've admittedly made indiscretions of my own at times and have been reminded by staff of rules and ettiquette, as have many players - all you had to do was be polite and accepting instead of taking it personal - maybe you should reflect on your own actions of Saturday night - you ruined the night for yourself, your friends and frankly for staff who work very hard for the patrons and deserve better. Strokers is one of the very best halls in all of Ontario and despite your false misleading review will continue to be successful for all the hard work its owner and staff do to maintain an excellent room.
