Also the Annual Lyndhurst Santa Claus parade - 3rd Saturday in November, now in it’s 52nd year! Annual Lyndhurst Turkey Fair - Every year, on the third Saturday in September, Lyndhurst's population of roughly 300 residents swells to a bustling crowd of up to 5000. Run by volunteers, the event is reminiscent of a time when farmers would gather in the village to show and sell their finest poultry. A
fter a day of selling, the farmers would make arrangements to ship the birds as far away as Montreal and Toronto from the Lyndhurst train station. That evening, there would be a dance and celebration. The market drew a crowd then, and the tradition continues today as people meander through the village streets during the fair, enjoying a number of events. The free day of fun includes a quilt show, antique car show, craft sale, wagon rides, silent auction, live entertainment and prize draws. The fair abounds with free activities for children such as a petting zoo, games, carnival rides, crafts, and more. Youths and adults also have the remarkable opportunity to row a Voyager Canoe. Annual Lyndhurst Santa Claus parade in it's 50th year 2024 continues to highlight the Village and local area. Floats, bands and of course Santa, a great day for the family. This year we will celebrate the parade through the Village and an evening of Christmas in the Park (Furnace Falls Park) visit Santa, enjoy live music, food and warm up with some hot cider and gather with friends, family and neighbours!
