March Break in Downtown Guelph!

Retro gaming, family and teen movie matinees, sleuthing and more this March Break in Downtown Guelph

Getting the kids off the couch this March Break is easy with our ever-expanding activity guide.  With a *new teen section*, there is even more on offer in the Downtown core.

 

Both the civic museum and the public library will keep the kids busy with interactive exhibits and special events.  The second annual scavenger hunt organized by Fantescapes will see mini sleuths follow clues and solve puzzles around Downtown.  Guelph’s first games café, The Boardroom, is waiving the cover charge for kids under 13, and The Bookshelf has daily family matinees for just $7 a seat.  If the weather stays cool, there will be skating at the Market Square rink.  Go to the City of Guelph website for daily updates on the rink. 

 

After all that exertion, take the kids and eat for free* at one of many participating cafes, bistros, pubs and restaurants.  (*Each restaurant has its own conditions attached to the offer, seen below, and these include grilled cheese at The Cornerstone, a grab bag of candies at Sweet! and pancakes at The Vienna).

 

It’s not just the young ‘uns that get to enjoy themselves.  Zombie movie matinees, two for one pizza offers at Milano PIzza, and video game tournaments at Afterlife feature in the new teen section alongside beauty offers and dance classes to be enjoyed with friends.

 

You can browse the full March Break guide here or visit our Facebook page for up to date details.
