Ecofest Barrie is proud to support the on-going programs of Back to Basics Social Innovations, a local not for profit organization dedicated to the education of our youth.
Working collaboratively as a community to celebrate our earth and to offer a message of new possibilities and alternate lifestyles.
The message of a cleaner, healthier and longer lasting Earth is best carried through the diversity of music, art, and cultural expression. In this way, history must repeat itself.
Join us for live music from around the world to celebrate another great day at the Lake. We will have live music all day in 3 locations throughout the park.
New this year!

Swim Dive Fish Paddle
Ecofest Barrie takes place directly on the shores of Lake Simcoe so what better place to come and swim, paddle and get wet? We have a host of exciting and fun water activities for you, no matter your age. Grab a drink from our café and water bar and then head to the beach for a ride in our water balloons. Fancy a trip in a canoe? Why not get your beginner paddler's certification at the same time!
WATER IS THE LIFEBLOOD OF OUR WORLD
Living and eating healthy nourishes your body, mind and soul. Join us at our Harvest Table Café to learn about health foods and the intimate connection between your eating habits and sustainable farming practices. Change the way you see your food!

Ecofest Barrie is an easy and accessible way for homeowners to find out how they can green their property starting with a simple budget and gradually working up to more sustainable choices. We are eager to share ideas with homeowners who want to save money or improve their homes and lifestyles with green ideas.

We realize that browsing over 100 vendor stalls and paddling in the sunny waters of Lake Simcoe can be tiresome, so we are happy to provide you with some refreshment! Join us at our Water & Garden Café for a fresh juice, local beer or a light meal for you and the family.
