How to Spend the May Long Weekend in Niagara

The May long weekend is nearly here, and whether you’re a long-time local or brand new to the Niagara Region, this is one of the best weekends to get out and enjoy what the area has to offer.

With vineyard patios opening up, waterfront trails coming to life, and spring festivals returning, there’s something for every pace and lifestyle.


Events and Experiences to Check Out:

  • Bench Wine Country
    Wineries like Hidden Bench, Rosewood, and Flat Rock Cellars are hosting tastings, food pairings, and vineyard walks. Book ahead if you want to avoid long waits.

  • Welland Canal Trails & Lock 3 Museum
    Perfect for a relaxed afternoon walk or a bit of local history. The ships are starting to move again for the season!

  • Ridgeway & Crystal Beach
    If the weather cooperates, a day by the lake with a beachside lunch is a classic local experience. Expect soft launches of food trucks and weekend markets to pop up as well.


Hosting or Staying Local?

Stop by the Beamsville or St. Catharines farmers’ markets Saturday morning to grab everything from local asparagus to handmade baked goods and fresh-cut flowers. It’s an easy way to impress weekend guests and support Niagara’s small growers.
