No more: Rotary RibFest cancelled in 2025 and beyond

A major staple attraction of the summer is not going to happen next year. The Rotary Club of Peterborough Kawartha posted on social media Sunday that they ‘reluctantly’ cancelled the event in 2025 and forward. While no in-depth details were provided, the statement did say ‘the event has severely outgrown Millennium Park’. Officials offered apologies to everyone that enjoyed and supported Kawartha Rotary RibFest.
