Orangeville Blues and Jazz Festival goes this weekend


It's almost that time of year again.
Now entering its 11th consecutive year, the Orangeville Blues and Jazz Festival has established a well-earned reputation as “the place to be in the first weekend in June,” and has been recognized as one of Ontario's Top 100 Festivals by Festivals and Events Ontario for the third consecutive year.
The Festival opens tonight (Thursday) and runs until Sunday.
Over the years, the award-winning Festival has grown from its very humble beginnings to one of the most successful and highly-anticipated events in The Hills of Headwaters region — now attracting well in excess of 30,000 people from across southern Ontario and beyond.
This spectacular Festival would not be possible without the generosity of the many sponsors or the tireless efforts and countless hours logged by its army of volunteers. And this year's Festival is shaping-up to be one of the best yet.
An added bonus is that Friday and Saturday there will also be shuttle bus service connecting Orangeville's major parking areas to the Festival's location.
For more information, including the event schedule, list of performers, venues, and overnight accommodations options throughout the Hills of Headwaters Region, visit the Festival website at www.objf.org
Organizers are also urging people to bring refillable water bottles to stay hydrated. Most of the Festival's events are outdoors and the weather can get quite hot.
