Who doesn't love a long weekend? But even before Family Day starts - there's lots of fun things to do in Oakville this Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
Oakville News has your full guide to what's going on in town, including sports, live music, church sales, theatre, nature events, and so much more. Here's our complete list of events for this weekend, February 17-19, 2023.
If you're looking for Oakville's events every weekend, you no longer have to search multiple websites; we've searched them all for you. We want you to spend your time going to an event, not searching for them.
While Friday is expected to be cold at -10 degrees, Saturday and Sunday should both warm up just above 0, making it a great time to head outside for some winter fun with your families. If you're attending evening events outdoors, don't forget to dress warm!
If you're looking for fun activities to do this Family Day, Monday, Feb. 20, 2023, Oakville News will have a separate special events guide coming out later this weekend.
