There’s more to do in Mississauga than hanging out at Square One. This suburb west of Toronto is home to walking trails, lakeside views, and one of the last indoor roller skating rinks around. Forget about going to the mall again. Check out these top things to do in Mississauga.
#1 – Escape From The 6
If you haven’t been to an escape room yet, what are you waiting for? Mississauga is home to some of the best. Check out Escape From The 6 located on the border of Mississauga and Oakville for friendly staff and a super fun experience. You’ll be immersed in an interactive game world filed with puzzles and challenges and need to work together to escape before the 60 minute timer runs out. So fun!
#2 – Paint Nite
Wine plus painting—where’s bad? This is a great activity for a date or a night out with friends. Paint Nite sets up in local bars and restaurants and its dedicated instructors will guide you step-by-step in the creation of your very own masterpiece. The only thing you need to master: how to hold a paintbrush and a wine glass at the same time.
#3 – Scooter’s Roller Palace
Why not take a step back into the past and check out Scooter’s Roller Palace. This iconic Mississauga landmark first opened its doors in 1975 and continues to entertain with good old fashioned roller disco fun. If you’re hungry you can visit Mickey’s Pizza afterwards nearby for a slice!

#4 – Highway 5 Drive-In
Have you been to the Highway 5 Drive-In yet? This classic drive-in theatre straddles Mississauga and Oakville and plays new releases at its three screens throughout the spring and into the late fall. Don’t miss Carload Thursdays, where you pay just $20 admission to cover everyone in your vehicle.

#5 – Erindale Park
Mississauga is known for its proximity to great hiking trails like the Bruce Trail and Rattlesnack Point, but there’s lots to do within the city limits as well. Located off Mississauga Road, Erindale Park is full of trails providing endless hiking opportunities as the nicer weather approaches.
