“I don’t want to see them leave the park, but it really is a growth issue,” he said Tuesday.
Morelli said it’s clear the festival has become a larger and more sophisticated operation.
Because the move to Ancaster keeps the festival in Hamilton, any annual grants from the city wouldn’t be affected. Ancaster Fairgrounds has parking for more than 5,000 vehicles, a 30,000-square-foot main building, a 36,000-square-foot show ring and close to a dozen outbuildings. The fairgrounds also have a paved bus loop for transit buses.
“This is a win-win-win” for Hamilton, Ancaster and the festival, Ancaster Councillor Lloyd Ferguson said Tuesday. “I am going to do whatever I can to make it a success.”
