2018 Canadian National Exhibition – Northern Comfort Saloon Announcement
The Northern Comfort Saloon is coming back to the Canadian National Exhibition in 2018, and they’re bringing some great country music to the stage.
We’ve been enjoying the country saloon vibe and stage at the CNE since 2014, and over the last four years, we’ve had the chance to see some up-and-coming acts show off their talents to new crowds. And with the announcement of eight artists for 2018 (with more names likely to be added in the coming weeks) we can already see how this year will also be a success.

In the past few years, we’ve had the chance to see artists including Andrew Hyatt, The Washboard Union, Leah Daniels, and James Barker Band playing on the country stage in the city. They all put on great shows, and we’re willing to bet we’ll see more of the same this year!
Have a look at the first eight artists announced on the CNE Northern Comfort Saloon schedule, and be ready for more updates and announcements as we get closer to Toronto’s annual end-of-summer celebration.
