Winnipeg Folk Fest has announced its lineup for the 2017 year.
City and Colour, The Shins, and Feist are among the artists who will be performing at the July festival. There will be over 70 bands performing on nine stages across two campgrounds during the festival.
In a release, artistic director Chris Fayer said, “This year’s lineup is a culmination of many influences and inspirations. Having the chance to travel abroad on behalf of the festival to discover talent creates a great opportunity to bring that sense of discovery back home to the summer fest to share.”
Folk Fest runs from July 6 to 9 at Bird’s Hill Provincial Park.
