Show off the Soo

Burgers, vinyl, facials, and... well, you'll have to see!

Hosting guests can be an exciting opportunity to show off some of the local hot spots. There's no shortage of things to see and do in Sault Ste. Marie, so why not share some of these unique and memorable experiences the city has to offer!

Outdoor Skating

Grab your skates or visit the local pawn-shop if you don’t own a pair, and get out to the Art Jennings Speed Skating Oval for a unique skating experience. Enjoy the fresh cool and crisp air, listen to some music, and enjoy the outdoor local hot spot for all skater’s beginner to novice.

Spin some Vinyl

The Rad Zone is Sault Ste. Marie’s top record shop, where you can spend hours flipping through thousands of albums waiting to become part of your collection. It's the perfect place to escape the cold of winter and get lost in the search for the newest additions to your vinyl collection.

Grab a Burger

Burger Don should be on the top of every burger lover visiting the city. Burger Don is a prohibition-era burger joint featuring gourmet burgers, build-your-own burgers, gourmet hot dogs, tacos, spiked milkshakes and craft beers. It’s out of this world and worth throwing the car in park for. Visit this unique local hot spot at 7 Great Northern Road and go early, it fills up fast!
