Bracebridge starts Memorial Park bandshell improvements

The Town of Bracebridge has begun the next phase of enhancements for the Memorial Park bandshell.

This follows last year’s reconstruction of the bandshell structure as a legacy project celebrating Bracebridge’s 150-year anniversary.

According to officials, crews have now begun additional site enhancements, including pathway paving, landscaping, and finishing work around the structure to further enhance accessibility, safety, and the overall visitor experience in Memorial Park.

As part of the work, the town says the cannon at the south end of the park has been temporarily removed for repairs, and will be returned to the park once the project is complete.

Town officials say a temporary, accessible washroom will be available beginning next week, in time for the long weekend, followed by a permanent washroom facility to be added to the park in 2027.

Officials say the renewed gathering space has been designed to support community events, performances, ceremonies, and programming for generations to come.

Residents and visitors are asked to respect all signage and barriers that may be in place during work to help ensure public safety as the project progresses.
