MESSAGE FROM THE MAYOR

Welcome to the historic Town of Gambo, the gateway to the beautiful Kittiwake Coast and The Road to the Shore on Route 320. The Town of Gambo is rich in history and natural resources and boasts three major salmon rivers making it a fisherman’s paradise. The Gambo area attracts an influx of tourist all year round who come to fish for trout and salmon in the spring and summer, ice fish in the winter, as well as, explore our beautiful wilderness areas.

On the weekend preceding the first Monday in August, we celebrate the Smallwood Holiday Weekend. The Smallwood Days Festival is a four day festival featuring a music festival, outdoor adult dance, socials, games, concessions and the grand finale is an amazing display of fireworks put off by the Gambo Fire Department on Monday night. During the summer of 2022, the Gambo River Theatre Group with be presenting the play “Just Imagine Gambo's 9/11 Story”. For dates and tickets to the theatre, contact SEDCOR at (709) 424-1962.

In addition to our festivals, Gambo has an array of beautiful, scenic and breathtaking walking trails. The Smallwood Complex boasts over 12 kilometers of well-groomed and properly maintained walking trails. Four trails are a part of this concourse; they are the Gambo River Trail, Madeline’s Trail, Dominion Point Trail, and the Middle Brook River Trail. These trails consist of amazing scenery and rich history with interpretive panels, rest stops, and benches.
