On this page, I will list any upcoming events that will be happening in the near future in or around Temagami including areas from Marten River through to the Tri-Towns of New Liskeard, Haileybury and Cobalt (known now as Temiskaming Shores). All events will be community based and have a tourism based theme. Some events might have a free entrance while others might have a gate charge. If anyone knows of any events that are not listed here, please forward any information available on that event and I can then post it. We have accommodations available for any out-of-town guests attending these functions.
