    THEATRE COLLINGWOOD’S 2025 PORCHSIDE FESTIVAL TICKETS GO ON SALE TODAY!

    Sharing is SO MUCH APPRECIATED!

    Welcome to the 5th Annual Porchside Festival!

    It’s hard to believe that what began as a small, pandemic-inspired idea has blossomed into one of Theatre Collingwood’s most cherished traditions! There’s something truly special about Porchside—whether it’s the charming outdoor settings, toting your lawn chair in to take a seat, the sense of community, or the incredible talent in a very intimate setting. Whatever it is, we know it has become a favourite for both our audiences and performers alike.

    This year, we’re bringing you our most diverse programming with truly something for everyone. So please share this information with your friends and book early, because spaces are limited.

    Special thanks to all our porch owners who generously donate their spaces!

    If you are new to Porchside here is what it is all about:

    We bring in world-class professional artists who perform incredible shows on porches or patios in Collingwood, or the surrounding region. The festival runs each day from July 1st-24th. Most are ticketed events so you must pre-book. Each space has a performance and also a local visual artist showing their beautiful work. You bring your lawn chair and enjoy a wonderful evening of entertainment in a glorious & intimate setting.

    You will notice that we have only a few matinees this year. The truth is that most yards are just too hot in the afternoon in July. The 7pm evening time is perfect. Shows last about 1 hour and you are home before it gets too dark. UNLESS you want to visit one of our DINE & PLAY establishments who offer special deals with your Theatre Collingwood tickets.

    From July 1st to 24th, Collingwood will come alive with music, storytelling, and celebration. The festival includes:

    • 14 different shows, which means 14 amazing “porches”

    • 25 performances in total

    • 40+ talented performers

    So, gather your friends, pack your lawn chairs, grab your tickets, and get ready to experience the magic of the Theatre Collingwood Porchside Festival 2025! We can’t wait to see you there!
