This is a festival with a long history. It is held in the city of Orillia, where it was originally founded in 1961. The city expelled the festival only a few years after the first edition, blaming the bad behavior of the attendees. The event had various homes for a while until Orillia took it back in 2000. Currently, the festival features some of the most distinguished names in contemporary singer/ songwriter music. Please refer to the website for more details.
