Regular Canadians Preparing for Uncertainty
The Preppers Meet is a hands-on, skills-based festival focused on practical self-reliance, emergency preparedness, and community. It’s for everyday people who want real-world skills, taught in a supportive, family-friendly environment.
What is the Preppers Meet
A multi-day outdoor event with workshops, seminars, and hands-on training led by experienced instructors.
Sessions run in both classroom and wilderness settings, so you learn by doing. Camp for the week, the weekend, or just come for the day.
Our Story
The event has traveled to locations across Ontario — including Huntsville, Desboro, and even the ARK 2 Bunker (yes, the underground fallout shelter built from interconnected school buses). The mission stays the same: practical skills, responsible preparedness, and good people.

Cool off between sessions (schedule TBA).
A luxury compared to past locations—flushing toilets on-site.
