As a regional centre in Grey County, Hanover prides itself on being a progressive and vibrant community. A hub for services surrounded by a rural landscape, Hanover attracts creative minds to volunteer, participate and work, open small businesses, and build lives in our community.
Economic success over the past two decades has led to a growing population and a diverse business base. From its beginning, Hanover has been a dynamic town, fueled by a rich history. This dynamism is felt on the streets of Hanover today where values are shifting from an old economy to a town with a growing cultural and creative industry and a new generation of engaged residents and leaders of all ages that are building Hanover into a creative community in Western Ontario.
With people having more of a growing interest in the digital workforce, Hanover is well positioned as a Gig community to allow the freedom for people to unplug from urban cities and give them an incredible opportunty that fits their ideal work-life balance.
Home to a celebrated craft brewery, a vibrant downtown showcasing a renowned bakery, and an array of attractions, dining options, shopping and amenities, including exceptional recreational, cultural, educational and employment opportunities that all contribute to a fantastic quality of life. Our Entertainment District provides legendary experiences that includes the newly developed Playtime Casino, live harness racing every Saturday and lots of family-friendly events and activities at the P&H Centre.
