Stratford is a beautiful city on the Avon River, full of gorgeous architecture, and home to the Shakespeare Festival. It's one of Ontario's premier arts destinations for live theatre, music, museums, and galleries. Every year, theatre lovers flock to Stratford for the annual Stratford Festival, a world-class celebration of all things Shakespeare.
