Sparks Street is one of Ottawa’s most significant heritage streets. It was founded in the early 1800’s by Nicholas Sparks - one of the City Fathers of Ottawa - which at that time was called Bytown. After Queen Victoria selected Ottawa to be the Capital of Canada, Sparks Street became the thriving commercial centre for the Ottawa valley.

Throughout the year the mall plays host to a variety of outdoor events including Winterlude, the Ottawa Ribfest, Buskerfest, Poutinefest, the Ottawa Jazz Festival, and more, culminating with a celebration of Lights on the Mall over the Christmas Holidays.
