THANKS FOR COMING OUT!
HERITAGE DAYS
44 YEARS
AN ESSENTIAL PART OF ANCASTER
We acknowledge and celebrate our presence on ancestral Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee land. We respect the longstanding relationships and treaties with the local Indigenous communities:
the Mississaugas of the New Credit First Nation and the Six Nations of the Grand River.
We are working to make truth, reconciliation, and education a part of our organization and events.

OUR MANDATE IS TO MAKE IT FREE
AND WE CAN DO THAT BECAUSE OF THESE GREAT PEOPLE & BUSINESSES
“Sponsoring Ancaster Heritage Days is a huge win for my business. At Ancaster Eye Clinic it’s important to us to give back to the community that supports us. With our Ancaster Heritage Days sponsorship we not only get to invest in the community but we also get incredible return on our marketing dollars by allowing us the opportunity to connect with hundreds of current and prospective patients."

ABOUT US
In 1979 two incredible women started what has become the premier FREE event of the Ancaster community. Bette Fraser and Ann Sloat brought the community together for a festival, and 40+ years later we’re still doing it. In 2014 we incorporated under Ontario’s Not-for-Profit Corporations Act, and appointed a Board of Directors, corporate officers and an operating committee, all of whom volunteer their time.
We thank all of our great sponsors who help to make this event a success each year. A special thanks to our title sponsor, StoneRidge Insurance Brokers. This local business has been a proud and committed partner of Ancaster Heritage Days for the past six years.
Be sure to stay connected through the Ancaster Heritage Days website and our socials! We are always updating!
