Summer Events 2020 Update
With the current public health guidelines in place for COVID-19, large events and gatherings are not permitted to take place for Summer 2020. This means that the Town of Paradise is not able to host its regular events, including Canada Day celebrations and the SunSplash Paddle in Paradise festival.
While we will miss having these events and sharing in the summer fun, the health and safety of our employees and residents is paramount and we fully support the public health guidelines.
The Town is exploring options to offer virtual or online events for our residents so that we can find ways to celebrate during the summer - so that we're still together while we are physical distancing and supporting the public health requirements. Updates will be provided when the details are finalized.
