Sponsorship/vendor event opportunities

Wellness for All is an assistance program helping those with limited financial resources to participate in quality recreation and culture programs. The program relies on donations from community groups, local businesses, and individuals to operate successfully. All donations are matched dollar for dollar by the City of Welland.

Summer music festivals, Canada Day, and New Year's Eve are just a few of our large-scale City events. You can also sponsor summer camp or book ice for free public skating. If you are interested in being a sponsor or vendor, please email recreation@welland.ca.
