KIDS VILLAGE

Kempenfest is for kids too!

Yellow line
We’re back to normal and so excited! Your kids are going to have an absolute blast this year! It’s all about the family fun – bring the kids down and make some memories. Challenge them a game, take a spin on the rides at the Midway, and grab some cotton candy! Bring the kids to the Ontario Turkey Farmers Kids Village located beside the midway next to Centennial Beach. Kids will enjoy colouring and painting. Grab some markers and help them colour in our giant Kempenfest Mural. Make some cool buttons with the folks from the MacLaren Art Centre. Play some games with sponsors like Code Ninjas and GoGo squeeZ. Check out the latest games at the Nintendo pavilion. Take in a magic show on the KOOL-FM Stage. Plus try out some great new Turkey Franks from Butterball and snap a selfie with the Ontario Turkey Farmers mascot.
