Your Voice Matters!

We want to hear from you! What would make Wasaga Beach even more welcoming, vibrant, and connected? How can we celebrate our natural assets while creating new opportunities for gathering, recreation, and year-round fun? Do you have an idea for how the waterfront could feel more lively and walkable? An idea for a new public space? What would draw people here in the quieter months, or make a day at the beach even better? Big or small, your ideas will help shape the future of Destination Wasaga. Add your ideas to the wall and share your thoughts on the ideas of others! (max 140 characters).

The abandoned amphitheater in Beach Area 2 could be revitalized and used for summer theatre festivals, productions, and music concerts!

20 November, 2025

KM says:

Please consider traffic. Wasaga's density is getting too congested for local roads to handle. Too long to get from one end to the other

20 November, 2025

KM says:

If Wasaga takes over Beach 1, please keep the boat launch and improve it. The other launch is too difficult/small to get to in the summer

20 November, 2025

Add an extension to the Main St bridge as a lookout/photo op? Lookouts on the bridge/beach/river/dunes could be mapped as an activity.

An indoor/outdoor concert venue with a view of the water and retractable roof It needs to hold more seats than the current arena

Why not use the old arena for events such as BluesFest, Octoberfest etc...there's plenty of parking and weather/noise would not be an issue.

19 November, 2025

Bonfire spots in cooler weather and winter, a ice skating area with music, winter vendors, a splash pad in the summer, lots of restaurants

Thanks for the meeting last night, question-as a Wasaga Beach resident, what impact will this have on my property taxes going forward?

18 November, 2025

Wasaga Beach thrives on tourism, but our service workers can’t afford to live here. Need more affordable rentals and attainable housing now

We need a three season Concert bandshell as the arena is subpar for concerts. Should include an indoor / outdoor area for larger crowds.

A long jetty would allow daytime boat docking for visitors . Leverage our waterfront and pull the boating community to Wasags.

18 November, 2025

Sue says:

The attraction of Wasaga is its natural beauty. Building housing beyond Beach 1 will ruin it. Establish annual events that will growl

18 November, 2025

Teresa says:

Open spaces, that include bike and walk paths. Cafes and restaurants along beach one and thru beaches 2-6. Retail shops. Mid-rise condos.
