ith warmer temps and longer days ahead, many of us are looking forward to spending more time outdoors, gathering with friends and family, and being a little more adventurous.

Fun seasonal events are often at the top of the list — and that’s certainly the case for local REALTORⓇ Nick FitzGibbon and the Let’s Talk Real Estate team. Not only are they experts in real estate, they live in the community and enjoy everything the city has to offer.

Here they share the spring, summer, and fall festivities they’re most excited about this year.

SPRING

Guelph.Beer Bus 2026

One Saturday per month

“It is run once a month on a Saturday and it’s free! Just grab some friends, kids, and family and go experience some great local breweries, food, etc.” says Dave Aubrey, REALTORⓇ. “I think my wife and I might have been the first people who brought our kids on the beer bus with us and that had a riot jamming with the DJ at Wellington Brewery picking through her albums. I have a hard time telling them they can’t join us now.”

Art on the Street

Saturday, June 20, 10 am – 5 pm
Quebec Street

“I love seeing local artists showcase their work,” says Christina FitzGibbon, Marketing & Client Relations Manager. “My kids and I love going to see what the kids at the market are selling. They love seeing what other kids their age are creating. I also love purchasing the artwork from the kids to support their hard work!”

Guelph Farmers’ Market

Every Saturday, 8 am – 1 pm
2 Gordon Street

“Spring and summer to me is all about the local food and produce,” says Colette Bayani, Sales & Marketing Assistant. “I love the opportunity to taste the food from local farmers and vendors. Rodolfo’s Rebel Foods salsa and breakfast burritos, Feng’s Dumplings and new to the farmer’s market — The Baking Professor — are all gems. If you go, you must try them all!”

SUMMER

Guelph & District Multicultural Festival

Friday, June 12 – Sunday, June 14
Riverside Park

“This is what I love most about Guelph — it’s a place that celebrates diversity in such a genuine, vibrant way. As an immigrant, this event really resonates with me. It’s a beautiful reminder of the cultures, stories, and traditions that make our community so rich. This year marks its 40th anniversary,” says Jessica Furmah, REALTORⓇ.

“I’ve been going since I was a kid — first with my family, then with friends, later with my husband, and now with our kids. It’s one of those events that grows with you, and somehow gets more special every year. From the main stage performances to the incredible cultural showcases, live music, and amazing food, there’s truly something for everyone. We always end up running into familiar faces, discovering local businesses, and just soaking in the energy that makes this community so special.”

The Good Games

Friday, June 26 – Sunday, June 28
University of Guelph

“This is a great opportunity for families to get outside together and participate in sports. It is free and inclusive of all skill levels,” says Nick FitzGibbon, REALTORⓇ. “Every year is so good. Just seeing the amount of families and kids participating is a memory in itself. To see the joy it brings to the kids to participate and how it brings the community together is remarkable.”

Guelph Ribfest

Friday, August 28 – Sunday, August 30
Riverside Park

“This is an end of summer staple in Guelph, a great event that always feels like the start of a new year, with students returning to the University of Guelph and other students leaving Guelph to pursue their education elsewhere,” says John Clark, REALTORⓇ.

“Headed into its 28th year, there are too many memories to count! It is a great event for all ages with live music, the classic car show, the fair for the kids, and of course the food!”

adobestock_296883976

FALL

Taste of Guelph

Sunday, September 20
Garden party on the grounds of St. Joseph’s Health Centre

“Amazing food and a great atmosphere are what make the Taste of Guelph stand out right away, but there’s more to it than just that. It also supports small local businesses, giving them a chance to showcase what they do best and connect with the community in Guelph. On top of that, the proceeds go toward a great cause — the St. Joseph’s Health Centre Foundation — which makes the whole experience feel even more worthwhile,” says Jeff Basso, REALTORⓇ.

“I remember grabbing a random dish from a vendor I hadn’t heard of, honestly just because the line was short, and it ended up being the best thing I tasted all night. I started chatting with the person next to me about it, and it turned out they actually knew the chef personally. Five minutes later, we were all talking together, the chef included, about how the dish came together. It was one of those moments where everything felt really local and connected like you weren’t just eating food, you were part of the story behind it. I ended up going back for seconds, and now anytime I think about that event, I remember that feeling more than any specific dish.”

REALTORⓇ Colette Aeschlimann is also a big fan. “There is sooo much delicious food, with many local hospitality businesses showcasing some of their best eats of the season. If you don’t roll out of there, you have to head back in and indulge yourself!” she says.

“Aside from attending with wonderful people, sampling all of the delicious local food, enjoying the music and seeing familiar faces, my favourite part is that the community comes out to support this event and these local businesses, rain or shine! One year, it was so extremely muddy (even under the tent, as it had rained for days straight), everyone’s shoes were soaked and nearly ruined with mud, and there were still so many people in attendance. Great to see!”

“These events are all great reasons why people should consider Guelph as a place to live, raise their families, be close to grandchildren, or retire. There are events for everyone and you can find your community here,” says Nick FitzGibbon.

Nick and the team are indeed true Guelph enthusiasts who love talking to clients about why they should move here or what makes a particular neighbourhood so special. The city has so much to offer, including wonderful, warm people with great community spirit.

Don’t miss out on these fun seasonal events. The team will be attending with their families and they hope to see you there!

Home ownership is finally more affordable for many Ontarians. On March 25, 2026, the Ontario government’s Ministry of Finance announced it was expanding the HST rebate to lower the cost of new homes.

One popular development in South Guelph is already working with buyers who are looking to maximize the savings.

Local Guelph REALTORⓇ and Sales Representative Nick FitzGibbon recently sat down with Adam Carapella, President of The Tricar Group, to discuss the changes, the timeline, and the benefits for home buyers, as well as the effect on sales.

Nick FitzGibbon: How impactful do you think these rebates will be on the real estate market?

Adam Carapella: The removal of HST on new homes is potentially a once in a lifetime opportunity for purchasers to save a significant portion of the value of a new home. And the window to do so is limited to purchases between now and March 31, 2027. At our Gordon Square III Community in South Guelph, this means a savings of up to $90,000.00. We are already seeing the impact of these new savings in both the number of visitors and the number of new condominium homes that we are selling.

NF: How is Tricar addressing these rebates?

AC: We are passing the full amount of the savings along to our home buyers with immediate effect. The removal of the HST is a combination of both the provincial and federal portions of the tax and the finalized legislation is still working its way through the layers of government. In the meantime, we are transparently communicating the savings and new lower prices to our prospective purchasers when they visit our sales office and meet with our staff. They are there to help answer your questions in a no pressure environment and to help you understand the new savings and how they will impact what is likely the biggest purchase someone will ever make, that being a new home.

NF: Were you surprised to see such a drastic announcement?

AC: I would say both yes and no. These are certainly significant savings that the provincial and federal governments have worked together to introduce, and they really help make home ownership more affordable to Ontarians. The affordability and housing crises in Ontario are well documented and all levels of government have now realized this and seem to be rowing in the same direction with industry to attempt to solve these issues. I have been privileged to be the 2025-26 president of one of Ontario’s leading Home Builder’s Associations and have witnessed the co-operative nature of the work completed by the government that led to this program being announced.

NF: What advice would you give to purchasers looking at condos now that the rebates are implemented?

AC: Shop around and see what best suits your needs in a new condominium home. But the time is limited to just under a year and these savings will likely not be seen again. At Gordon Square III in Guelph, we have a sales office actually located inside a finished suite, a comprehensive set of amenities to tour, and 6 fully furnished model suites for you to test out. We have weekly open houses and regular office hours with a great staff of experienced Guelph sales representatives who can help you understand the savings and all that moving into a new condominium home entails.

NF: How has this announcement affected Tricar?

AC: We have definitely seen an uptick in the number of enquiries, visitors, and sales at Gordon Square III in Guelph. Many of our homeowners are empty nesters and/or downsizers who are more established in life but also take more time to contemplate a move into a new condominium home. This limited-time opportunity to capitalize on real savings has certainly provided them with a new sense of urgency and excitement. We are also seeing an increase in professionals and young professionals who want to upsize their existing home or buy new for the first time and benefit from the savings.

NF: What sets your product apart from others on the market?

AC: First and foremost, Gordon Square III is built; it is not a project where you have to wait a year or two or more to be completed. As mentioned, you can tour all of the amenities and a variety of model suite types instead of simply looking at floorplans or a brochure. If you are happy with what you see, you can move in right away and settle into a completed new condominium community with no long waits or construction mess.

Additionally, Tricar has always built our condominium homes with end users in mind. This means suites significantly larger than those typically found in the marketplace that are designed to be comfortable, with elevated finishes and constructed to the highest quality standards.

We at Tricar are also very proud of the trust that our purchasers have placed in us. Tricar is consistently voted one of Ontario’s most trusted high-rise builders and is a 9-time Finalist and 3-time Winner of Tarion’s Ontario High Rise Builder of the Year. Tarion is a non-profit, consumer protection agency established by the Ontario government to protect consumers with the purchases of new homes. The awards and acclaim we have received from them were voted on by our previous purchasers and is something that we are very proud of, as it speaks directly to our commitment to the quality of our construction and our customer service.

NF: What are Tricar’s goals as you continue to work and expand in Guelph? Will you continue to support the city?

AC: At Tricar, we’re proud to be celebrating our 40th anniversary. While the company was founded in London, Guelph has become an important part of our story; we’ve had the opportunity not just to build here, but to be part of the community.

Gordon Square III marks the final phase of a very successful South Guelph community, and we’ve also completed several condominium developments in the downtown core, with more thoughtfully planned communities ahead.

As we continue to grow in Guelph, our focus goes beyond building homes; it’s about contributing to the city in a meaningful way. That includes supporting local initiatives, partnering with community organizations, and finding opportunities to give back to causes that make a real impact here. Whether that’s youth-focused programs, health services, or local fundraising efforts, we see local Guelph community support as an important part of how we operate.

Guelph is a city that values connection and community, and we’re committed to continuing to play a positive role in that as we expand.

AC: Let me throw a question back at you. You are one of Guelph’s most established realtors and have seen it all. Sum up what you love most about Gordon Square III and why it has been so well received by prospective home buyers in Guelph.

NF: Gordon Square III has been a great project to work on. Having a well-established builder deliver a spec-built high-rise gives buyers real confidence — they can actually walk through and see what they’re buying.

It has been amazing getting to know all the people coming into the building and watching the community take shape. Opportunities like this are rare, and not something we expect to see again anytime soon.
