BREAKING NEWS: Wasaga Beach Seeks Partners for Signature After-Dark Light Attractions - Destination Wasaga launches second major tourism RFEOI as Town explores immersive, year-round visitor experiences
Wasaga Beach is exploring how its iconic waterfront could come alive after dark, seeking bold ideas from companies with proven experience creating large-scale, immersive light-based attractions.
Council has approved the release of a Request for Expressions of Interest (RFEOI) for potential Large-Scale, Ticketed Evening Light-Based Attractions—inviting experienced companies to bring forward concepts, partnership models and ideas for a signature visitor experience that could become part of the Town’s waterfront revitalization and destination development efforts through Destination Wasaga.
“The future of tourism is about creating experiences people can’t find anywhere else in the world,” said Mayor Brian Smith. “Wasaga Beach already has the world’s longest freshwater beach and Ontario’s most visited provincial park. The question we’re asking is what else could be possible here. Whether it’s soaring above the beach, experiencing a spectacular nighttime attraction, or discovering something entirely unexpected, we’re committed to exploring bold ideas that strengthen our economy and help position Wasaga Beach as a premier four-season destination.”
Interested vendors can review the full Request for Expressions of Interest (RFEOI) and submit applications through the Town’s Bids and Tenders platform: wasagabeach.bidsandtenders.ca
