At the 2026 Event
Set up at the Father's Day Waterfront Festival vendor market on race day.
Kantila makes candles you’d mistake for flowers. Every piece is hand-poured and shaped like a delicate bloom, then arranged with dried accents into candle bouquets — gifts built for weddings, graduations, and the moments that deserve more than ordinary flowers. Their motto says it best: where flowers meet flame — gentle light, natural beauty.
Each arrangement comes in different sizes, and Kantila even includes a step-by-step lighting guide so every bouquet burns clean and safe — craftsmanship carried through from the pour to the flame.
You’ll find Kantila among the local makers, food vendors, and small businesses that brought the 2026 Mercedes-Benz Oakville Bronte Harbour Classic 5K Father’s Day Waterfront Festival to life.
Why we love having them at the Classic
Every festival market needs a booth that stops people mid-stride, and candles you'd swear were fresh-cut flowers will do it. Handmade, hand-poured, and one of a kind — Kantila is exactly the kind of local artisan the Father's Day festival was built to showcase.
