New Fairgrounds have WOW factor


I took part in a media tour of the new Ancaster Fairgrounds today. Perhaps the most impressive feature is the 28,800 square-foot Maritt Hall that can be divided into three smaller rooms. There's also a new air-condited concession building, perfect for special event rentals. There's more room for livestock shows, educational displays and there's enough room to park about 5,000 cars.


The spacious Marritt Hall is definitely work a look. It has to be one of the biggest conference facilities in the Hamilton area and I'm sure it will attract a lot of interest. The natural stone columns in the design and metal roof are nice touches.


I'll be posting a slide show of the new fairgrounds in the coming days in our multimedia section at http://www.ancasternews.com/
