Festival Announcement: WayHome by Republic Live!
At the end of December we found out that Republic Live (Boots & Hearts) and AC Entertainment president Ashley Capps (Bonnaroo) were coming together to host a music and arts festival in the GTA.
The dates were set – July 24-26, 2015.
The venue was locked down – Burl’s Creek Event Park.
But that’s all we knew.
Until now…
It’s official that the new festival will be called WayHome and the inaugural lineup will include:
Headliners: Sam Smith, Kendrick Lamar, Alt-J, Modest Mouse and Hozier
