Event Website
Step back into the Roaring Twenties, when Prohibition transformed the Detroit River into one of the busiest smuggling routes of the era. Discover how Windsor-Essex became a rum-running powerhouse, the ingenious methods used to move illegal liquor across the border, and the colourful stories, close calls and larger-than-life characters that emerged along the way.
From hidden booze and secret signals to fast boats, frozen rivers and daring cross-border schemes, Whisky, Water & Wild Times brings one of the most fascinating chapters in Windsor-Essex history to life.
