Black Creek Pioneer Village

(a program of the Toronto & Region Conservation Authority)

 

Visitor Information

 

Here are a few tips for your visit:

 

Wear comfortable walking shoes and appropriate outdoor clothes.

You'll be in the city but remember you will be visiting an authentic 19th century country village.

 

Arrive with an adventurous spirit.

Let your curiosity be your guide. Go inside the buildings, examine the details of what you see, and ask the interpreter how the building was used, who used it, and why things were the way they were.

 

Give yourself time.

Take the opportunity to spend time with the historic interpreters and enjoy the demonstrations and activities. Three to four hours is sufficient for most people.

 

Be prepared to ask questions.

Because we offer an authentic historic Village experience, you won't find many information signs. But you will find many knowledgeable interpreters and trades people in period dress, who are there to explain things. Approach them. Ask them lots of questions.

 

Look for special demonstrations and activities.

Every day at Black Creek Pioneer Village is different. Each day has its own schedule of demonstrations, activities and performances. Ask for details at the admission desk when you arrive.
