About
The Awakening – Monster Month Launch
Date: Friday, October 2, 2026
Time: 6:30 p.m. (dusk) – 8:30 p.m.
Location: Green Space Parkette, Downtown Elora
Kick off another unforgettable Monster Month with The Awakening—a free, family-friendly evening of mystery, music, laughter, and theatrical fun.
As dusk settles over downtown Elora, the Green Space Parkette comes alive with captivating stories, live music, dramatic performances, dancers, atmospheric lighting, and eerie smoke effects. An engaging emcee will guide the evening as performers—including musicians, actors, dancers, a storyteller, and a fire juggler—build anticipation for the return of Monster Month.
Everyone is invited to join the lively Zombie Dance before the evening reaches its magical finale. Together, the crowd will summon the Spirit of Monster Month to awaken once again, releasing the Monsters of the Twilight Zoo and ushering in a month of monster-filled adventures throughout Centre Wellington.
Admission is free, and everyone is welcome.
