Things to Do in March (and During March Break) with WagJag
March in Ontario is that magical in-between season: winter’s still hanging around, spring is tapping the window, and everyone’s craving a reason to get out of the house. Whether you’re planning a March Break staycation, a family day trip, or a “just us” date night, WagJag makes it easy to turn “What should we do?” into “We’re on our way.”
- Best for families: trampoline parks, bowling, kid-friendly theatre, Niagara bundles
- Best for couples: hibachi dinner, comedy night, live sports, day trip to Niagara
- Best for rainy days: shows, bowling, trampoline, indoor attractions
- Best for mild weather: treetop courses and outdoor adventures around the GTA
1) Big “Wow” Events to Anchor Your Month
If your March vibe is “one big outing that makes the whole month feel exciting,” start with experiences that feel like a main event. One standout on the WagJag March calendar is the National Home Show in Toronto at the Enercare Centre (Exhibition Place), running March 6–15, 2026. It’s a classic for a reason: home inspiration, clever upgrades, and endless “we could totally do that” ideas.
National Home Show (Toronto)
A perfect March outing for browsing, dreaming, and leaving with at least one “small” project idea that becomes a whole personality.
Runs March 6–15, 2026 at Enercare Centre, Exhibition Place.
Puppet Festival Mississauga
Theatre that feels like a warm hug, and a great way to introduce little ones (and secretly yourself) to live performance.
Show dates run March 14–22, 2026.For families, Puppet Festival Mississauga is the kind of plan that checks every box: wholesome, imaginative, and genuinely fun for adults too.
2) March Break Activities That Burn Energy (and Save Your Living Room)
March Break has two moods: “Let’s do something fun!” and “How is it only 10:17 a.m.?” The trick is to mix high-energy outings with plans that feel like a treat, without needing Olympic-level scheduling.
Jump, bounce, repeat
When you need a guaranteed energy reset, trampoline parks are a classic. WagJag’s March calendar features Aerosports Trampoline Park jump passes (weekday-friendly), which is ideal for families who want to avoid peak crowds.
Bowling = the universal crowd-pleaser
For mixed ages (and mixed attention spans), bowling is a win. A WagJag March deal spotlights a one-hour bowling lane with shoes for up to 6 people at Bingemans (Kingpin Cambridge or Kingpin Bowlounge in Kitchener).
- Morning: active outing (jumping, climbing, bowling)
- Afternoon: show or attraction
- Evening: easy dinner deal (bonus points if it feels fancy)
Want a structured option that feels like a win for kids and parents? CM Dancing March Break camp runs March 16–20, 2026.
3) Outdoor Adventures for When Spring Teases You (GTA & Ontario)
The first mild March day hits differently. When the sun is out, and everyone suddenly remembers they own a jacket that’s not a parka, it’s time to go outside.
WagJag’s March lineup includes Treetop Trekking admissions for options like the Discovery Course or Treewalk experiences in Hamilton and Stouffville.
4) Niagara Day Trips That Feel Like a Mini Vacation
If you want March Break to feel like a getaway without the airport chaos, Niagara Falls is the move. A standout on WagJag’s March calendar is the Niagara Falls Fun Zone – Fallsview bundle, which packages attractions and arcade fun with restaurant discounts.
Niagara Falls Fun Zone – Fallsview Bundle
Attractions + arcade energy + dining discounts = an easy “full day” plan.
Bundles available for groups (e.g., 2 / 4 / 6) with attraction access and restaurant offers.
Want to make it adults-only for a night? Niagara also delivers on entertainment: Yuk Yuk’s Niagara Falls (note: this one’s 19+).
5) Sports Nights and “We Actually Left the House” Energy
March is when live sports start calling your name again. WagJag’s March calendar includes up to 25% off select Toronto FC home games.
6) Foodie Plans: Date Night, Family Night, or “Treat Yourself” Night
March is prime “let’s go out” season, especially when WagJag has dining deals that make it easier to say yes. One headline-maker: seven-course prix-fixe teppanyaki dinner at Hibachi Teppanyaki & Bar.
Make March easy: pick your “theme” and build around it
- Family Fun Theme: trampoline + festival show + Niagara bundle
- Adventure Theme: treetop course + bowling night + hibachi dinner
- Grown-up Theme: Toronto FC match + tasting menu + comedy night in Niagara
Tip: Keep one “weather-proof” plan in your back pocket (bowling, shows, trampoline) and one “sunny-day” plan (treetop, day trip). March loves surprises.
Conclusion: Your March Break, Upgraded
The best part about March isn’t just that spring is coming. It’s that the month is packed with easy wins: shows to see, places to explore, and experiences that feel bigger than the price tag. Whether you’re planning a full March Break itinerary or just trying to make weekends feel more fun, WagJag’s March Event Calendar is a cheat code for turning “maybe” into “booked.”
Save this post, share it with your group chat (the one that never agrees on anything), and check back often. March deals move fast, and the best plans are the ones you actually make.
FAQ: March & March Break in Ontario
What are the best March Break activities in Ontario for families?
Choose 1 big outing (festival/show or day trip), then fill the week with easy wins: trampoline, bowling, and one “treat” meal. It keeps kids busy without over-planning.
What are fun things to do in March in Toronto and the GTA?
Look for marquee events, live shows, sports nights, and indoor activities that work even when the weather flips. Booking early matters most during March Break.
How do I plan around unpredictable March weather?
