Things to do in Hamilton this weekend

Written By Unknown on Sabtu, 30 November 2013 | 22.46

There's a lot happening in Hamilton this weekend, and as the temperature drops, much of it is Christmas themed.

From Tom Cochrane and Great Big Sea to Santa — here are some fun things to do in Hamilton on the last weekend of November.

The CP Holiday Train

Get into the holiday spirit this Saturday with Canadian icons like Tom Cochrane, Great Big Sea and Natalie MacMaster as the CP holiday train stops at Gage Park. Make sure you say hi if you see the CBC's Peter Mansbridge, who is hosting the show.

While the show is free, attendees are asked to make a donation or bring non-perishable food items along to the gate. Everything collected at each show stays in the community for local distribution.

Holiday train

CP's popular holiday train makes its annual stop in Hamilton this weekend.

Prior to each show, revellers can visit The North Pole Station, which organizers call "a magical village which will feature family-oriented interactive activities, ice carving, hot chocolate and a chance for the kids to visit Santa before making their way to the concert stage."

Gates open at 4 p.m., and the show starts at 5 p.m.

The Flamborough Christmas Parade

Get in the holiday spirit in Flamborough this Saturday, starting at 6:30 p.m.

The parade starts at John and Hamilton streets in Waterdown, and goes south to Dundas Street, East to Main Street and then up Main Street to Parkside Drive. For more information, visit flamboroughsantaclausparade.com.

Poor Angus and Friends

Come check out nouveau-traditional band Poor Angus Saturday night, alongside Dawn and Marra and Tomi Swick.

The show starts at 8 p.m. at the Bay City Music Hall at 50 Leander Drive. Tickets are $22.50.

Pet pictures with Santa

Admit it — everyone loves those cheesy pictures of pets with Santa. Bring any pet to the Hamilton/Burlington SPCA on Saturday and Sunday from noon to 4 p.m. for photos with Santa.

Prices start at $10, and the shelter is located at 245 Dartnall Rd. For information, visit hbspca.com.

How to find peace in the Syrian conflict

Mother Agnes-Mariam of the Cross will be in Hamilton this Sunday, explaining the realities Syrians are facing during the current conflict ripping through the country. She is promoting peace and reconciliation, but will also touch on how foreign support influences the conflict.

Agnes-Mariam will be at the Centenary United Church at 24 Main St. W. on Sunday at 2 p.m.

Trailer Park Boys

The Trailer Park Boys are bringing their signature brand of humour to Hamilton on a Christmas tour this Sunday.

Ricky, Julian and Bubbles are back with a new live show with Mr. Lahey and Randy in tow.

When Bubbles tries to spread the true meaning of Christmas to the world, his good-hearted plans are botched by Julian wanting to cash in on the festive season and Ricky's relentless pursuit to meet the real Santa. And if that wasn't enough, all three of them have to deal with the very intoxicated Jim Lahey and his cheeseburger-eating sidekick, Randy.

The show starts at 8 p.m. at Hamilton Place, and you can buy tickets on Ticketmaster.
