Brantford International Villages Festival
In case you want an alternative to Pan-Am Game action, consider attending this fun and merry cultural festival next weekend! Passports are $10 per person. Minors under 13 are free when accompanied by an adult.

I went over 10 years ago and found the downtown pavilions easy to walk to if you can find parking in one spot and walk as needed. The shuttle definitely is handy for the more northerly locations but due to popularity, seats can be hard to get depending on the times you need to board.
Fond memories of the paczki at one of the Polish pavilions and the merriment at the Latin American pavilion!
Definitely worth a night or two of fun and seeing Brantford in another light.:excited:
