From August 31 to September 2, 2013, four Windsor-Essex communities will
be working together to hold the Coastal Trails: Sails to See Festival. This exciting festival will celebrate our
regional collaboration bringing together four communities to commemorate their
shared stories over the course of one jam-packed weekend.
This year the focus of the festival is the
Commemoration of the Battle of Lake Erie, a historic moment in 1812 that led to
the burning of Sandwich Town, Amherstburg and the British loss of Lake
Erie. Our region will host a TALL SHIPS®
festival, entitled "Sails to See" welcoming numerous tall ships to
our region, with each port hosting family fun themed programming all weekend
long.
Each community will have a unique signature event encouraging residents
and visitors to explore and travel the area to each of our participating ports
to experience the tall ships docked in our waters.
All communities will feature performers—both theatrical and musical,
games, and other marine related activities celebrating the 200 years of Peace
between Canada and the United States of America. In keeping with the tradition of TALL SHIPS®
festivals from around the world, lovers of art, music, food and wine, families
young and old will attend this dynamic festival.
