The City of Morden is thrilled to announce the reopening of the Suncatch Plaza for the 2024 season, starting June 10th, 2024. Located at the heart of downtown Morden, between Appelts Diamonds and the iconic clock tower on 8th Street, Suncatch Plaza aims to continue its mission of increasing pedestrian traffic and promoting the downtown core as a vibrant community destination.
New for the 2024 season, the City of Morden is now offering free booking opportunities for community groups, businesses, and residents who wish to host events at the Plaza. From company barbecues to community gatherings, the Plaza welcomes all to celebrate, connect, and enjoy its unique atmosphere. However, it is important to note that if not enough events are booked for the summer, the street will be reopened to vehicular traffic.
Highlighting the 2024 season is the Crocus Suncatch Sounds concert series. Mark your calendars for these dates:
May 24th
June 14th
July 5th
July 26th
August 16th
September 6th
These concerts are part of the Plaza’s initiative to offer free cultural events that bring together locals and visitors alike for nights of entertainment, showcasing local talent and creating lasting memories.
Suncatch Plaza features pedestrian-only areas with seating, greenery, and a stage for live music and performances, creating the perfect backdrop for any event. Designed to foster community spirit, inclusivity, and engagement, the Plaza's benefits are multifaceted - from environmental improvement to the promotion of local businesses.
The Plaza will be open from June 10th through August 19th, 2024. Those interested in booking the space for events are encouraged to secure their dates early. Bookings can be made by calling the City of Morden Community Services at 204-822-5431 or by emailing recreation@mymorden.ca.
