Saturday, October 17 and Sunday, October 18 , 2026

The Lambton Fall Colour & Craft Festival at Lambton Heritage Museum has been a community tradition since 1980. This juried event features vendors selling handmade goods, ensuring a unique shopping experience. As one of the largest craft festivals in the Lambton Shores area, it welcomes 3,000 visitors on average each year. The event is Lambton Heritage Museum's signature fundraiser, with proceeds supporting the museum's work. Last year’s festival had over 70 vendors selling a variety of items from categories such as art and home décor; bath and candles; clothing, apparel, and accessories; food and drink; jewelry; needlework and textiles; pottery; and signs and woodworking. 

Admission is $5 cash only. Kids 12 and under are free. An ATM will be available inside the museum grounds should you need it.

Only service animals are permitted on the museum grounds during the festival.

Additional Offerings

Craft Station

We’re excited to partner with the Judith & Norman Alix Art Gallery to host a special autumn-leaves themed craft in our historic Rokeby School. Create something seasonal with this family-friendly craft.

Demonstrations

Enjoy live heritage demonstrations throughout the weekend, including quilting on treadle sewing machines in the Rokeby School, and timber framing near the Tudhop Home. This is your opportunity to see heritage skills in action!

Feature Exhibit: Bluewaterland

Don’t miss your chance to explore our feature exhibition before it’s gone! Bluewaterland closes on October 18. Head into the main Museum Building to explore the secrets of Lambton's waterways.
