The Sweet Taste of Spring
Every year the town of Elmvale explodes in a celebration of Nature’s rites of Spring – the running of liquid gold – Ontario Pure Maple Syrup. The town transforms into a shoppers’ mall. With over 200 vendors offering maple syrup, food galore, book sales, collectible sales and other country treasures. Don’t miss the Sugar Shack information booth where you can get directions, as well as your copy of the Festival Directory.
All through the village, you will smell the delicious aroma of pancakes and sausages – our all day pancake breakfast, a must for all visitors. As you chow down on this delicious fare, enjoy the sweet sounds of Dusty Roads, The Mugs Band and musical talents from our many special guests.

Welcome to the 55th Annual
Maple Syrup Festival
It is my sincere pleasure to welcome you to this year’s Elmvale Maple Syrup Festival in beautiful Springwater Township.
After three long years, we are so thrilled to gather together again in celebration of nature’s sweetest treat. For more than five decades, this signature event has brought people from hear and far to experience the community, enjoy the entertainment, shop for unique gifts and taste the best maple syrup this country has to offer.
A special thank you to the many volunteers who work year-round to make this wonderful event happen – your dedication and commitment is truly inspiring. What many people aren’t aware of is that most of the money raised from this event goes right back into the community, supporting organizations and clubs throughout our Township.
On behalf of Springwater Council and staff, we thank you for supporting our community and participating in the Elmvale Maple Syrup Festival. We hope you enjoy your time here today and look forward to welcoming you back in the near future.
