Canalside

Canalside is at the heart of downtown Buffalo's waterfront revitalization. Located at the 1825 terminus of the Erie Canal, the site's storied history is just as exciting as its future! Canalside hosts hundreds of events throughout the year, many of which are free or low cost to the public. You'll find concerts and festivals, summer fitness classes and ice skating presented by Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield, children's programming, history tours, and outdoor winter activities.

Dine. Workout. Concert. Skate. Revel. Chill. At Canalside, fun happens here!
