Visitor Info Centre Opens for Summer Season
June 30, 2022Cornwall Ontario – The Cornwall Tourism pop-up visitor info centre is now officially open for the summer season.
Located at the bright pop-up container in front of the Cornwall Civic Complex (100 Water Street), the visitor info centre will be open 7 days a week from 9 am to 5 pm, from Friday, July 1st to Friday, August 26th.
Visitors and residents can stop by and pick up the latest editions of the Explore Cornwall Visitor Guide or Cornwall Living magazine as well as maps and other tourism information. Cornwall Tourism staff will also be happy to provide recommendations on things to see and do in the city and region.
“The pop-up visitor centre is in an ideal location given its proximity to Lamoureux Park and the Riverside Trail,” said Kevin Lajoie, Tourism Officer. “It’s a convenient place to be for cyclists who are heading out on the trail and other visitors exploring the waterfront.”
In addition to the visitor centre, Cornwall Tourism staff will also be visible this summer along the Riverside Trail and other parts of the city. Staff will be roaming on bicycles to greet visitors and provide information. Cornwall Tourism will also have a presence at a variety of festivals and events throughout the city this summer.
“We have already seen an uptick in visitors exploring the city over the last couple of weeks and we expect to see even more of that as summer continues on,” added Mr. Lajoie.
On inclement weather days, Cornwall Tourism staff will be working inside the Cornwall Civic Complex. Visitors can obtain service at the front entrance.
