MEC Demo Days – Give the Outdoors a Try!

Discover the best of the outdoors at our upcoming event: MEC DEMO DAYS – Give the Outdoors a Try! Join MEC and leading outdoor brands at Area 8 for a weekend of hands-on gear demos, expert advice and family-friendly fun. Test out mountain bike options, explore the latest trail running shoes, and check out cutting-edge camping gear with guidance from industry pros.

Beyond the demos, enjoy a lively atmosphere with games and activities hosted by Conservation Halton. For a small fee per activity, you can experience activities like hatchet throwing, archery, navigating a climbing tower provided by The Guelph Grotto and more. Or purchase an Activity Pass to unlock all-day access (some limits apply). There’s also a natural playground with trikes and a track that’s perfect for the little ones!

Whether you’re a seasoned outdoor enthusiast or just getting started, this event is the perfect chance to learn new skills and connect with like-minded adventurers. Participants can also enter our MEC raffle for a chance to win outdoor gear and prizes from top brands, plus receive a VIP discount voucher redeemable at MEC (some conditions apply).

Don’t miss this chance to come out with your family and friends for a full day of fun by the water!
