Did you know…? | The original #CactusFest took place across a full week in late-June to early-July 1976. Celebrations included a week of dances, picnics and "athletic events," specifically a tennis tournament, wheelchair basketball, and even a hang glider display. #DundasONT

Did you know…? | The third day of the inaugural #CactusFest (Monday June 26th 1976) ended with a showing of the 1969 movie 'Cactus Flower,' starring Ingrid Bergman and a young Goldie Hawn in one of her earliest roles. The screening took place at Dundas' Parkside High School.

Good news! The Dundas Cactus Festival will be back for its 51st edition on 21-22-23 August 2026. #CactusFest2026
