CANTON, Ohio — City and tourism officials say the new development near the Hall of Fame could help Canton attract visitors well beyond football’s biggest week. One of the centerpiece projects is Gameday Bay, a football-themed water park that Hall of Fame Village officials say will be the first of its kind in the country. The attraction is scheduled to open in spring 2027.
