It may be the depths of winter but Summer in the City organizers are already planning for sunny days.
The festival announced that Canadian country music artist and award-winning singer/songwriter Owen Riegling will headline the mainstage on June 19.
Since winning the 2022 Boots & Hearts Festival’s emerging artist competition in 2022, Riegling has parlayed his success of his platinum-certified hit “Old Dirt Roads” and the release of his expanded EP Bruce County (From the Beginning) to leave his comfort zone and explore new songwriting territory.
In a new release from Summer in the City, Riegling described his new music.
“I’m just making the music that I would want to listen to and I’m talking about the things that mean something to me,” he wrote. “I’m out here doing me – and that’s all I’m trying to do.”
Summer in the City is hoping people will take advantage of the early announcement.
Until Dec. 31, tickets are 20 percent off and available for $45 each.
Beginning Jan. 1, tickets rise to $55. They are available for purchase at www.summerinthecity.ca and Pat Porter Active Living Centre.
The Saturday mainstage entertainment has not yet been announced.
