The Lowertown Celebration brings together over 450 participants each year in various activities for individuals and families of all ages. This festival is organized by Lowertown residents in collaboration with organizations and agencies working in the neighborhood.
This year, Lowertown Celebrates will take place on June 10, 2023, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Jules Morin Park, located at 400 Clarence Street East, and in case of rain, the activities will be moved to the Patro d’Ottawa (40 Cobourg Street).
This special day is an opportunity for residents to meet in a positive environment, to bond with one another and to encourage pride and a sense of belonging to the neighborhood. Lowertown celebration offers a range of activities in French and English for everyone, from the very young to the elderly, including a variety of music and dance performances, arts and sports activities, and strolling artists.
