Brighton...where the past greets the future.
The Town of Brighton, located at the eastern border of Northumberland County, is a charming example of small-town Ontario. With Presqu'ile Provincial Park and its wonderful bird-watching opportunities nearby, and the wine-growing region of Prince Edward County on our doorstep, Brighton regularly plays host to a variety of pleasure-seeking tourists. Out-of-town visitors to the Brighton Barn Theatre often come on a weekend, spend a bit of time in our shops and restaurants and stay in one of our cosy bed and breakfast establishments.
Here are a few of the local businesses and attractions in the downtown area you might enjoy. For a more complete list, visit the website for the Brighton and District Chamber of Commerce. Site will open in a new window.
