Last chance to experience Niagara’s Fury
This is the last chance for visitors to experience Niagara Parks’ 4D attraction, Niagara’s Fury, before it closes permanently. Guests can immerse themselves in the captivating story of how Niagara Falls was formed, brought to life with stunning visuals and effects. September 2 will mark the final day of operation for Niagara’s Fury to make way for a new experience coming Summer 2025. Once Niagara’s Fury is closed, there will be ticket substitutions available for all pass holders.
Red Arrows to fly over the Falls
Visitors will not want to miss the spectacular Red Arrows Flyover over the Horseshoe Falls on August 28 at 6 p.m. Enjoy an unforgettable display of aerial acrobatics as the world-renowned flight team soars above one of the world’s most iconic natural wonders.
Discover the Magic of the Whimsical Creatures Exhibit
Explore the fantastical new Mosaïculture-style outdoor garden exhibit at the Floral Showhouse, Whimsical Creatures. Niagara Parks’ horticultural team, in partnership with Mosaïcultures Internationales de Montréal and the Atlanta Botanical Garden, have meticulously planted a series of Mosaïculture living sculptures. From buzzing bees to a mighty 20-foot dragon, each piece connects to an element of Niagara Parks’ commitment to horticultural excellence. For more information, visit niagaraparks.com/mosaiculture.

Holiday Road Closures
Guests visiting for the long weekend are advised to plan ahead for road closures. On Saturday, August 31, and Sunday, September 1, the Niagara Parkway will be closed to vehicular traffic from Clifton Hill to Fraser Hill, beginning at 7 p.m., with a full road closure in place by 8 p.m. Clifton Hill from Victoria Avenue to Falls Avenue will also be closed to vehicular traffic beginning at 7 p.m., with a full closure in place by 8 p.m. Closing the roads within this high-traffic tourism area will provide a safer environment for pedestrians while reducing vehicular congestion and gridlock by the Falls.

For visitors from the GTA, the GO Niagara Train Service allows access to all that Niagara has to offer, including combo packages that bundle both the GO Train and WEGO Niagara Parks bus service once you arrive, starting from only $20! Learn more at niagaraparks.com/go.
Upcoming Changes to WEGO Bus System
After Labour Day weekend, Niagara Parks will be taking over the WEGO Blue Line in addition to the Green Line, ensuring guests continue to have access to an integrated public transit system that connects to the main tourism areas of Niagara Falls. The former WEGO Red Line will become a new Niagara Region Transit route 116/216 operated by the Niagara Transit Commission. Note that these are two separate transit systems with two separate fares.
