Please see below statement from the Township of Scugog regarding the Port Perry Fairgrounds:
The Township and the Port Perry Agricultural Society (PPAS) met this evening (July 21) to discuss the Township’s plan to move forward a community visioning exercise for the future use of the Fairgrounds site.
Through the visioning exercise, the Township will retain a consultant to facilitate a collaborative discussion to garner proposals and ideas from across the community, with the PPAS as a key stakeholder. The goal is to achieve a vision for the site, based on the ideas and proposals received, that will provide an array of positive benefits for Scugog. A Request for Proposals to choose a consultant will be issued at the end of July, and the visioning exercise for the Port Perry Fairgrounds is expected to commence in the fall of 2025 and conclude by June 2026. In the meantime, discussions about a lease renewal will be paused until the completion of this visioning exercise. The Township has assured the PPAS that the Port Perry Fair can continue on the Fairgrounds in 2026.
