In fact, he never came. It seems that the first annual Elvis Festival in Niagara Falls Ontario was a bust. I waited to read and talk to others about this first festival to see what the feeling is for another festival.

No matter what, for an Elvis festival to be successful in Niagara Falls, it needs to be advertised. Advertised a lot. Remember, Elvis has been gone nearly 40 years. Sure he’s still the King. Still very popular and still making money on music, film and live performances, but for those under 30, he’s a name, not a passion.

If you want to fill the streets with Elvis fans, be sure you advertise to the right crowd (demographic), and be sure you educate for those younger than middle age and up.

My thoughts.

Just use the pointers and other menu stuff to look around.

Niagara Falls Convention Centre VideoFound this on YouTube. Guess the good folks at Niagara Falls Tourism are getting ready for another big push as the new Convention Centre nears completion.

This video is acually very good and is worth the 3 or 4 minutes.

Ok, OK, I know this blog is about Niagara Falls, but that’s not the question.

Where is the location that this picture is showing? That’s what I really want to know.

Of course you don’t have to be a kid. But when you get a little tired of watching the Falls, and that takes some time, maybe a game of mini-golf is in order.

Mini golf is a family favourite, and is especially exciting when teeing up beside dozens of life-size dinosaurs. The kids love it. You’ll find natural sand, realistic water traps and large, roaring dinosaurs.

The surroundings are so lifelike it feels like you’ve been transported directly into Jurassic Park.

So, when you are planning your next trip to Niagara Falls, especially if you’ve got children with you, include 18-holes of mini golf at the amazing Dinosaur Park located on Clifton Hill, 5 minutes from the Falls.
