March Break is a chance to step out of routine and explore Vaughan in new ways. From indoor attractions to late-winter outdoor adventures, there are plenty of ways to plan a full and varied week for kids of all ages.
INDOOR ATTRACTIONS TO BUILD A DAY AROUND
Vaughan’s indoor attractions make it easy to build a full day during March Break around hands-on fun and interactive experiences that keep kids engaged for hours.
LEGOLAND Discovery Centre Toronto located in Vaughan Mills is a fan favourite for families with younger children. With an indoor LEGO® playground, rides, interactive build zones and a 4D cinema, the centre often features extended hours and themed activities during March Break. Kids can explore colourful LEGO® worlds, take on build challenges and move between play areas at their own pace, making it a flexible option for a morning or an entire afternoon.
For families with older children or mixed age groups, Dave & Buster’s and Bowls and Blasters offer multi-activity entertainment under one roof. Bowling lanes, arcade games and interactive attractions create a lively atmosphere where families can shift between activities and keep everyone involved.
HIGH-ENERGY INDOOR FUN FOR ACTIVE KIDS
For families looking to burn off energy during March Break, Vaughan makes it easy to keep kids moving. These indoor attractions work well as half-day outings or as a high-energy balance to quieter plans.
Wall-to-wall trampolines, foam pits and open jump areas make Sky Zone a reliable option for active play. Kids can move between zones, take part in trampoline games and enjoy unstructured movement in a bright, energetic setting that appeals to a wide age range.
For those who want a similar trampoline experience with expansive courts and open play space, Air Riderz Vaughan offers plenty of room to bounce and move freely indoors, particularly for older children.
Climbing walls and varied routes at RockHaus Climbing add a different kind of challenge, blending physical effort with problem-solving. Routes are designed for beginners through to more confident climbers, making it a focused, skill-building option for older kids and teens.
Fast-paced laser tag games at DP Lazer Maze combine movement, strategy and teamwork inside a darkened arena, creating an engaging experience for competitive players.
With obstacle courses, giant slides, climbing walls, oversized airbags and more than 50 arcade games, The Bubble brings multiple attractions together under one roof, making it easy to spend several energetic hours in one place.
OUTDOOR WINTER FUN: SKIING, MAPLE SYRUP AND FRESH AIR
For families hoping to enjoy one last winter adventure, Uplands Golf & Ski Club plans to operate throughout March Break with extended hours (Saturday, March 14 to Sunday, March 22, 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. and 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday). This local ski hill is well-suited to beginners and younger skiers looking for manageable runs. Operations are weather dependent, so check conditions before heading out.
March Break also coincides with the Sugarbush Maple Syrup Festival at Kortright Centre for Conservation, one of Vaughan’s signature seasonal experiences. Running throughout the break, the festival combines forest walks, maple syrup demonstrations, wagon rides, drumming circles and daily performances such as the Wild Ontario birds of prey presentation on Thursday, March 19. It is an immersive, distinctly Canadian experience that blends education, nature and fun.
Outdoor skating and tobogganing remain easy, flexible options, especially on mild days or after fresh snowfall. Community rinks and neighbourhood parks such as Mackenzie Glen District Park and North Maple Regional Park provide space for casual skating and family-friendly hills that pair well with nearby indoor plans.
BRUNCH, HOT CHOCOLATE AND FAMILY-FRIENDLY DINING
A fun full day during March Break often ends best around a table. Vaughan offers plenty of welcoming places to warm up, refuel and make the outing feel complete.
Eagles Nest Golf Club is hosting a special Sunday brunch during March Break, offering families a relaxed setting to gather over a leisurely meal in its scenic clubhouse. It is an easy way to add something memorable to the week before heading out for more activities.
For a cozy village stop, Balzac’s Coffee Roasters makes a charming addition to a March Break outing. Located in the heart of Kleinburg, this European-inspired café is known for its hot chocolate, baked treats and welcoming atmosphere. Families can stroll the quaint streets of the village, explore nearby shops and attractions, then warm up with cocoa and cookies in a space that feels like a mini getaway close to home.
Sugarhill Desserts rounds out the list with handcrafted waffles, sundaes, cakes and velvety milkshakes that appeal to families with a sweet tooth. It is the kind of celebratory stop that turns a simple outing into a March Break highlight.
