Our Portage Flyer Christmas is a “super-magicated” event that has become a tradition among families. Enjoy complimentary hot chocolate and cookies, while supplies last. Cost is $5/person, babes in arms are free.
New this year, we are pre-selling a limited number of tickets for a senior and sensory-friendly train ride at 4:30 p.m. This run is for our residents needing a little more time and less hustle and bustle to enjoy the holiday experience. Tickets are available on the Town’s registration platform or by calling (705) 789-7576 ext. 3210. Registered service animals only please.
This is a very popular community event; please arrive early to avoid disappointment and dress warmly as the event takes place outdoors. Parking available at Muskoka Heritage Place’s main entrance, Huntsville High School, Canada Summit Centre, Active Living Centre or directly across from the event on Forbes Hill Drive. If you need specific directions or more detailed parking information, please visit Muskokaheritageplace.ca.
Special Thank You: Santa Claus would like to note that the rail volunteers at Muskoka Heritage Place are definitely on his ‘nice’ list for volunteering to provide this super-magicated event to the community. Merry Christmas, everyone!
