The Delhi Park Pageant 2026
Saturday August 22 2026 - show at 6 PM
The Delhi Pageant is a large-scale community spectacle that weaves together art, music and performances to create a stunning, immersive celebration of Delhi Park’s past, present and future. Narrated by the Warden of the Wilds, who has watched over this land since the beginning of time, it is a moving tale that explores Picton's roots, the stewardship of the land before settlement, and the evolution of Delhi Park. The pageant's message is simple: take care of each other, take care of the land. This outdoor production is a magical love letter to Picton’s green gem that will delight audiences of all ages.
There is one performance only. Admission is free although donations are welcome (cash preferred). Some seating will be provided but if you’d like you can bring your own chair or blanket. Rain date: Sunday August 23.
If driving use Lalor St. entrance, or park at the Mary Street parking lot and walk down the hill (approx. 5 minute walk).
