PA Day Camps in Mississauga and Brampton 2026-27

The next PA Day in Peel is Friday, November 27, 2026, for PDSB and DPCDSB elementary students. 6 of the 7 PA Day camps we list in Mississauga and Brampton are open that day, so check each camp's listed dates against the day you need. The rest of this guide covers the remaining PA Days, the camps that run on them, what they cost and what to check before you pay.

When is the next PA Day in Peel?

Secondary students at PDSB and DPCDSB have no PA Day on that Friday. Their next one is Wednesday, February 3, 2027, a secondary-only day, so if you have a high schooler, plan around that date instead. If your household has children in both elementary and secondary school, you'll need two different dates, and it's worth checking both calendars before you book anything.

What are the 2026-27 PA Days for PDSB and DPCDSB?

The two boards publish their calendars on their own sites: the PDSB 2026-27 calendars and the DPCDSB 2026-27 calendar. Their published lists mostly match. The one gap is September 2 and 3, which PDSB lists and DPCDSB doesn't, and both dates have already passed.

Of the seven PA Days still ahead for these two boards, three are elementary only (November 27, January 18 and June 14), three are secondary only (February 3, June 29 and June 30), and February 12 is a PA Day for every school. Across all four Peel boards, 9 PA Day dates remain, counting November 27. The full date-by-date table sits above this section, so use it for the exact weekdays.

The French-language boards, Viamonde and MonAvenir, also have November 27 as an all-schools PA Day. They add Friday, February 5, 2027, and Friday, June 4, 2027, which PDSB and DPCDSB don't have. None of our listed camps is open on either of those two days.

Which PA Day camps are open in Mississauga and Brampton?

4 of our listings are City of Brampton programs, and none of the Mississauga listings is city-run. Later in the year, January 18 and February 12 each have 5 and 5 listings open, June 14 has 1, and none of our listings is open on the secondary-only days. Browse all of our options in Mississauga and Brampton.

YUAN Art Studio has listed dates that all end before the remaining PA Days, so the listing doesn't show it open on any of them. Call before you plan around it. Its care hours are After care until 6:00 p.m. or 7:30 p.m., which matters if your pickup is late. Registration isn't published on the listing.

MakerKids Camps (Winter Break, PA Day & Summer) is open on Friday, November 27, and it is the only listing open on June 14. It runs at MakerKids Mississauga - South, with Before care 8:00–9:00 a.m. · After care 3:30–5:00 p.m.. Groups are split by grade, so check which group your child lands in. The listing gives no age range, and registration isn't published either.

Visual Arts Mississauga is at Visual Arts Mississauga at Riverwood. Its listed run, Oct 26 to Nov 27, 2026 · 2 sessions, ends on the same PA Day as the November date above. Registration runs through Amilia, according to the listing.

The four City of Brampton programs are the Ken Giles gymnastics and ninja parkour and rock climbing programs at Ken Giles Rec Centre - Flower City Gymnastics Club, plus Cassie Campbell Community Centre and Gore Meadows Community Centre. They share a listed window of Nov 27 to Feb 12, 2027 · 3 sessions, but the listing doesn't say which days hold the sessions, so ask the City. The listing links to the City's booking page, which is the place to look for sign-up details, and no before or after care is listed for any of them.

How much does a PA Day camp cost?

Use the per-day figures in the table, not the weekly ones. Two of the Mississauga listings publish weekly prices, which run from $360 to $550 for a full week. Those are summer and winter-break week prices, so they aren't PA Day costs, even though the YUAN and MakerKids notes also list their single-day rates. Our guide to after-school class prices in Peel puts these numbers next to regular classes.

Brampton's programs have no separate price field. Their fees appear only in the note, they are sold as single days, and non-residents pay a higher fee than Brampton residents. Check your residency before you budget, because the figure you see may not be the one you pay.

When you compare the per-day figures, add up what a week of PA Days would cost if your child needs more than one. A single day at a Brampton program and a single day at a Mississauga art or STEM camp are both worth pricing, but they aren't priced the same way, so a side-by-side total is more useful than a single number.

What should you check before booking a PA Day camp?

• Check the date against the listed dates. A camp counts as open on a PA Day only if that day appears in its dates. For Brampton, the three sessions aren't named, so confirm them first.
• Ask whether single-day enrolment is open. Brampton programs are sold by the day, and MakerKids also lists single-day enrolment.
• Confirm the price includes tax. Ask whether the fee you're quoted is before or after HST.
• Ask about care hours. Not every listing shows before or after care, and a PA Day can run a different schedule from a regular day. Plan your pickup around the listed hours, not your usual school-day time.
• Confirm age and grade groups. Some listings don't publish an age range, so ask which group your child will be placed in.
• Ask how to register. Several listings don't say how to register, so ask the provider directly.
• Ask what happens if your PA Day plans change. Find out the provider's policy on moving or cancelling a single day before you pay, since the listings don't publish one.

Booking a week or two ahead gives you time to get answers to these questions before the day arrives. For City of Brampton programs, read the guide to when to register for city programs in Peel before the booking window opens. If you're trying a camp for the first time, the trial class checklist covers the questions that apply to a short session. For other activity ideas by age, see After-school activities by age.
