Woodstock Old Home Week

Old Home Week is a staple in the Upper River Valley. The 9 day festival boasts events that brings everyone from Carleton County and surrounding areas out to enjoy our traditions and life as we know it.

Lawn Mower Races

Old Home Week brings the newest racing trend sweeping the Maritimes to Woodstock. These races are action packed and provide an epic experience for the whole family. Catch these impressive machines in action on our newly built lawn mower track.

Hobby Show

Our Hobby Show is where local artisans and hobbyists showcase their abilities. Beautiful crafts, woodworking, quilts, photography and paintings are just a few of the items you will find here. Don’t forget to take in one of the many workshops and demonstrations scheduled!

Miss New Brunswick

This event is so big it takes 2 nights! On Monday night, come watch as ladies from across New Brunswick entertain us at the Miss NB Talent Show. Tuesday evening, the contestants compete for the coveted title of Miss NB where they are judged for their personality, poise, intellect and experience. The moment that we all wait for of course, is the crowning of a new Miss New Brunswick.

Old Home Week Parade

Nothing says it’s Old Home Week like our annual parade which takes place the first Sunday of the festival! Main Street is lined with people from Deakin Drive to the Meduxnekeag Bridge downtown to watch local individuals, clubs and businesses pass by with their amazing entries.

Demolition Derby

Engines revving, metal scraping, dirt flying and crowds cheering are just the start of the excitement at Old Home Week’s Demolition Derby. Drivers and the crews come from near and far to smash and crash in hopes of gaining the title of the last vehicle running! An Old Home Week tradition for many generations, the Demolition Derby is sure to be fun for the whole family!

Midway

Campbell’s Amusements joins OHW starting on Wednesday until the close of our festival on Saturday. With rides and games, they make sure to provide fun for the whole family. Grab a few tickets for a couple of rides or a bracelet for a day of unlimited fun! Make sure you stop by one of the food vendors for a candied apple or cotton candy before you go.
