Riverfest Elora is another great annual Canadian festival getting started this week.
On Friday, Aug. 16, Riverfest returns for the 11th version of its annual festival for three days of “art, food trucks, arts and craft vendors, community, and of course, music!”

There’s an extensive lineup of performers scheduled for the festival, spanning a variety of genres. Notable hip-hop related acts include A Tribe Called Red, k-os, Mix Master Mike, Narcy, Los Poetas, Just John x Dom Dias, and DijahSB. Jessie Reyez was originally scheduled to headline one of the three dates, but had to cancel her appearance (as well as Osheaga) after injuring herself during a performance at another event.
Riverfest Elora is held at the picturesque Bissell Park on the banks of the Grand River in beautiful downtown Elora, Ontario. The park is located two blocks east of downtown Elora at 127 Mill Street E., across the street from the Elora Centre for the Arts. It’s roughly an hour and a bit from Toronto.
Tickets to Riverfest Elora can be purchased on the festival’s official website.
