16th Annual Muskoka Escapades of Town Crying Competition

Town Crier competition

Once a year, the Muskoka Escapades of Town Crying Competition is held for modern-day town criers to be given the opportunity to compete for the highest honour in the business. This event is the longest annual Town Crier competition held in the world!

In July 2017, the contest was held in Bracebridge, Ontario, where 15 criers from Ontario and the USA  gathered to compare their skills. The town crier gathering coincided with Bracebridge's annual Santafest celebration.
