The Good Games Festival of Sport

July 6 – 7, 2024, 10:00 AM – 10:00 PM EDT
|

The GOOD Games, Canada’s Biggest Festival of Sport, stand as Canada’s premier celebration of sportsmanship, athleticism, and community spirit, embodying the essence of “Sport for Life, Sport for All.” This vibrant, multi-sport competition, designed primarily for adults, seamlessly integrates with a dynamic, Olympic-style festival of sport that welcomes families and individuals of all ages. Set over two exhilarating days, The GOOD Games are a beacon of inclusivity and active living, drawing an anticipated crowd of over 15,000 festival-goers and more than 1,500 athletes from diverse backgrounds.

Our festival is not just an event; it’s an experience. Admission is free, inviting attendees to immerse themselves in a wealth of activities that promise fun, engagement, and physical activity. From obstacle courses that challenge your limits to three-legged races that bring back childhood fun, and a variety of ‘learn to play’ sessions that introduce new sports, our festival caters to every interest and age group. This year, we’re proud to announce a groundbreaking partnership with the Indigenous Sport and Wellness Council of Ontario, further enriching our festival with unique Indigenous sports and cultural activations, alongside an exciting Archery competition.

At the heart of The GOOD Games is our commitment to the transformative power of sport. We champion the philosophy that everyone, regardless of age or skill level, should have the opportunity to engage in physical activity, embrace new challenges, and celebrate personal achievements. Our event serves as the cornerstone of this message, offering a platform for athletes to compete, families to bond, and communities to unite in a celebration of health, happiness, and the spirit of competition. Join us for an unforgettable journey of discovery, camaraderie, and the joy of play at Canada’s Biggest Festival of Sport.
