Come explore Innisfil Town Square! Extensive community consultation informed the development of this space and we welcome residents to see their ideas put into action.
Location
Innisfil Town Square is centrally located at 971 Innisfil Beach Rd., between the Innisfil ideaLAB & Library and Lakeside Retirement, making it easy for people to walk or wheel to. Limited parking is also available at the Library's Lakeshore Branch and along Innisfil Beach Road.
Amenities
Splash pad
The splash pad is open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily. The splash pad typically opens for the season near the end of May and closes in September each year, subject to change based on weather.
To activate the splash pad, press the start button on the ground with your bare hand or foot.
Skating trail
The 240-metre refrigerated ice skating trail loops though Town Square and is open from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. during the winter season, weather dependent. You can use the trail for walking or rollerblading in the warmer months.

Project background
Over the years, we've heard our residents loud and clear—you want more fun things to do close to home. Through Town Square public engagement, people asked for more places for social interaction, a splash pad in Alcona, a skating trail, and more unique spaces to enjoy. We awarded the design to Rutherford Contracting Ltd. and construction started in June 2021. The space opened in December 2022.
