West Niagara to host International Plowing Match in September

West Niagara will host the 2025 International Plowing Match and Rural Expo from September 16 to 20, drawing over 70,000 visitors. 

The five-day event in Grassie will feature entertainment, animal exhibits, plowing competitions, food vendors, a rodeo, and more.

Backed by local municipalities and the Niagara Region, the IPM is expected to generate $25 million in economic impact and support local initiatives. 

It’s the first time the event returns to the region since 1926.
