April 7–11 marks National Tourism Week in Canada, and Visit Mississauga is excited to champion the people, places, and experiences that make our city shine. This year’s theme, “Canada: Powered by Tourism,” reminds us how travel fuels more than just the economy—it powers culture, connection, and community.
In Mississauga, tourism means lakeside strolls at Port Credit, unforgettable concerts at Celebration Square, and global flavours in every neighbourhood. It supports thousands of jobs, energizes our small businesses, and helps us tell our city’s story to the world.
Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a lifelong local, there’s always something new to discover. Let’s celebrate the impact of tourism and the incredible moments that start right here in Mississauga.
