Canada's Wonderland celebrates Canada 150 with a month-long party filled with family-friendly activities and Canadian-themed shows.

For the entirety of July, Canada's premier theme park will be host to live music, street performances and food -- all free with park admission. The [West Coast Lumberjacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/10yearold-collection), famous for their dare-devil act will compete in a thrilling log-rolling, axe-throwing event that pays homage to Canada's booming logging industry, while the [Earth Rangers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gokigen-lovely-days) will teach kids about wildlife protection through an interactive live animal show.

The month-long party will be kicked off on Canada Day with 6,000 fireworks ringing in the milestone. In addition to the Canada 150 celebrations, Wonderland will be offering free admission to all active and retired personnel of the [Canadian Armed Forces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/team-canada-popup) to further solidify its commitment to Canadian culture and values.
