The Kingsway Entertainment District is a space for everyone to enjoy our great northern lifestyle; a place for our growing community to gather and celebrate. It is an innovative experience and a choice destination for northeastern Ontario that will proudly host visitors to the beautiful city we love and call home.
Thank you to more than 500 residents who attended information sessions last fall to tell us what you wanted in a site. Now we're looking to you for a few more ideas about the shared outdoor space, called Festival Square.
Festival Square is a public open space that will appeal to residents and tourists alike, and bring a vibrant energy to the area through the events and programming.
Tell us your ideas on what features, including programming, you envision for the space! Information gathered here, and in person at various planned information sessions, will help shape the design and functions as we move forward in the creation of your Festival Square.
Ideas will be accepted until July 11, 2018.

What is your VISION for the space?
almost 4 years agoCLOSED: This brainstormer has concluded.Think about overall uses and the feel of the space such as seasonal uses, family friendly, playful design, etc.

With the fantastically convenient proximity of the arena to the dump, there will be a lot of seagulls and ravens. This will lead to increased messes left on the cars of patrons. I think we should cover all the parking spots so Sudburians don't have to increase the frequency of car washing.

Festival Square in the shadow of a Government Casino with three subsidized restaurants competing with local entrepreneurs? No Thanks.
6SudburyStudentsalmost 4 years agoNo casino
I think the addition of a casino is not a good idea. Especially from a health promotion aspect- we have a high addiction rate, I think adding gambling into the mix will have a large negative impact on vulnerable individuals and their families/social circles. The space should be used to build new hockey arenas/multi use sporting centre to promote community health and bring events like little NHL back to the city.
