With September comes cooler temperatures, the leaves start to change colour and fall from the trees, back to school sales are the big thing at pretty much every retailer and most people are looking back on the summer festival season that was…but in Ottawa there’s always one more big party before we put away our festival shoes and that party, CityFolk Festival, unveiled its 25th Anniversary lineup earlier this morning.
Headlining the 25th Anniversary event are:
