Community Events

One of the many reasons Penhold is a great place to call home is our community events. Community Events are a wonderful opportunity to meet your neighbours and enjoy fun activities as a community.  The largest event each year is Penhold's annual Fall Festival held each September the weekend following Labour Day but there are events throughout the year for everyone to enjoy.

  • Easter Eggstravaganza: Saturday April 12, 2025
  • Canada Day Celebration: Tuesday July 1, 2025
  • Fall Festival: September 5-6, 2025
  • Community Christmas: Friday November 21, 2025
