Town of Innisfil Fall Tourism Challenge 

The Town of Innisfil Economic Development Office is excited to launch a new Fall Tourism Challenge designed to spark collaboration, creativity, and community spirit. We invite local business owners to team up and develop unique tourism and culture experiences designed to attract visitors and increase local spending!

Innisfil Fall Tourism Challenge aims to encourage business partnerships in order to create unique experiences that draw in tourists.

Think beyond the storefront—this is your chance to reimagine what’s possible when two or more businesses join forces. From a flower shop and pumpkin patch partnering together to co-host a thanksgiving centrepiece workshop to a bookstore and cafe collaborating on ghost-themed author nights, the possibilities are as endless as your imagination.   

If businesses can pull together to create a minimum of 5 high-value visitor experiences, the top 10 preferred experiences will be included in a campaign which will benefit from:

  • Marketing and promotional support from the Town at a value of approximately $5,000
  • Increased exposure through cross-promotional efforts
  • Professional photographs taken at your experience and shared with you for future use
  • Increased revenue and foot traffic within your business.

We’re looking for creative, fun, and fresh ideas that showcase the best of what our community has to offer—experiences that create memories and keep people coming back! 

Ready to get involved? 

Submit your application by July 4, 2025 for a chance to be selected for this pilot program and help shape the future of tourism in Innisfil. 

Applications open: May 15, 2025 – Keep an eye on this webpage, our social media, and ensure you’re signed up for our newsletter to be the first to receive the application! 

Deadline to apply: July 4, 2025 at 11:59 p.m.
