AD 29 Report post Posted February 2, 2015 Same dates as the Toronto Urban Roots Festival (TURF). Good for bookings / tour routing / sharing some artist costs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Northern Wish 63 Report post Posted February 2, 2015 I loved TURF but won't be able to attend this year due to the change in date. Bah! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AD 29 Report post Posted March 5, 2015 Also same dates as Riotfest (Toronto). Will mean more bands / acts in the area that weekend, maybe not same demographic but who knows.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Northern Wish 63 Report post Posted March 5, 2015 Riot Fest drew so poorly last year that everyone who entered the Exclaim! contest seemed to win tickets. I don't see them taking any attendees away from TURF. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AD 29 Report post Posted April 1, 2015 Well I can't copy and paste a link into this forum / post / reply from an iPhone (unless someone knows how to do this or Bouche can address it?) but on the Ottawa Citizen site right now there's an article detailing how CityFolk will be taking over Bank St in the Glebe during the festival a la Sixth St in Austin during SXSW. Lots and lots of free shows in many venues. Great idea again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AD 29 Report post Posted April 20, 2015 Given the TURF lineup and the comments about a joint bid for Wilco in the linked article below, I'd say it's fair to bet on a Wilco show at CityFolk. Good news. http://m.ottawasun.com/2015/04/19/creating-a-great-festival-one-piece-at-a-time 1 bouche reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
