2026 GALA TICKETS NOW ON SALE!

Annual BWF Gala

Each year, Brant Waterways Foundation hosts our signature Gala—an evening of celebration and community in support of our local trails and waterways. Guests enjoy a night featuring live music, raffles, a silent auction, scenic views, and catered dining, all while coming together to make a meaningful impact.

The Gala is more than a night out—it is a premier community event and a vital source of funding that enables us to provide leadership and grants for projects that protect, enhance, and connect people with the Grand River and its surrounding natural spaces.

Join us for an unforgettable evening that supports a healthier, more sustainable future for our community.

Annual Summer Photo Contest

We asked to see the waterways and trails of Brantford, Brant County, and Six Nations through your eyes, and we were once again blown away by the incredible photo submissions this year! It was inspiring to see so many of you out enjoying the trails and waterways all summer long.

A huge thank-you to everyone who participated and we will see you next summer!
