Riverfest Elora Announces 2019 Festival Lineup
Riverfest Elora announced their lineup for the 2019 Festival today. Headliners for the 11th year included Canadian acts, City and Colour, and Jessie Reyez and from the U.S., The Mighty Mighty Bosstones.
This sweetheart of a festival blends top tier headliners with local and indie talent for a well rounded, unique list of artists. In addition to the headliners, there are familiar names like Joel Plaskett Emergency, Alice Merton, K-OS, A Tribe Called Red, and so many more.
Riverfest takes place on the banks of the glorious Grand River in Elora, just 30 minutes from Guelph, Kitchener and Waterloo. A reasonable 90-minute drive from Toronto. There are multiple camping options, and for those of us who prefer a roof over their head, there are Inns and B&B’s. You can check out your options here, but act quickly!
Early bird weekend passes are on sale now, with regular passes going for $129+ tax. Riverfest Plus passes include access to the lounge, private restrooms, complimentary food + drink plus a souvenir mug are $250. On April 8th single day tickets will be available (Friday $65 plus taxes and fees, Saturday $85 plus taxes and fees, Sunday $85 plus taxes and fees) and early bird pricing ends.
We’ve got the day-by-day lineup for you here. Start planning your weekend!
