Happy 150th, St. Catharines!
For 150 years, St. Catharines has been shaped by change, opportunity, and innovation. What began as an agricultural settlement and canal-side industrial centre has grown into a vibrant city and a cornerstone of Niagara’s development.
In 2026, St. Catharines proudly marks its 150th anniversary as a City. While our community’s roots stretch back much further, St. Catharines was officially incorporated as a City on May 1, 1876.
Throughout this milestone year, we’ll be celebrating with a series of events, activities, and community initiatives that honour our history while looking ahead to our future. From cultural programming and historical reflections to City-wide gatherings and a special 150th celebration, there will be many opportunities to participate, connect, and share in the pride of our city.
