Barrie Dragon Boat Festival
August 19, 2023
The 19th annual Barrie Dragon Boat Festival is returning to Kempenfelt Bay on Saturday, August 19.
Proudly hosted by the Barrie Public Library and presented by Tim Hortons, this event has raised over $2 million for local charities including the Barrie Public Library since 2003. These funds have helped support the expansion of public library branches throughout the city, including both the Painswick and Holly locations!
Come ‘fill your cup’ for future branches and watch the races as teams paddle the waves of Kempenfelt Bay.
