2023 CANCAST Fishing and Tackle Show

On April 2nd, 2023, the Peterborough Tackle Swap and Fishing Show returns to Peterborough, Ontario under its new banner name and parent company, CANCAST Fishing. The 2023 CANCAST Fishing and Tackle Show will mark the official 2nd running of the Peterborough event and will more than double in size for 2023!

“We are beyond excited for this event to happen. We have secured both the Memorial Centre and the Morrow Building as well as a large outside section of the venue and it is going to more than triple our capacity limit,” says show promoter Kyle Carruthers. “We are excited to be working with the Memorial Centre for advanced ticket sales, and with fast entrance to the show, this should solve some of the hurdles we ran into at last year’s event with the crowd. Honestly, I can’t wait to see Peterborough become the capital of fishing in Canada once again on April 2nd.”

The CANCAST Fishing and Tackle show will once again be a hybrid event featuring a new expo Industry EXPO side showcasing the latest products to hit the market from top industry manufacturers, top bait makers and some of Canada’s biggest retailers. Also included in the event is the largest used fishing and tackle swap meet in Eastern Ontario. To top it off, on site we will also feature some of the Top Fishing Guides, Fishing Charter Captains, Tournament Series Directors, and top Industry Prostaff. More details to be released soon. See you at “The Show” on April 2nd, 2023!
