Mississauga Waterfront Festival Announces 2009 Performers


In 12 years the Mississauga Watefront Festival has seen a number of great Canadian musicians perform, including Tom Cochrane, April Wine, Loverboy, Kim Mitchell, David Wilcox, Jann Arden, Chantal Kreviazuk, Rik Emmett, Jim Cuddy, Glass Tiger, Colin James and others. I think I've made it to at least one night each year.

This year's Festival on June 19, 20, 21 looks like one of the best years ever and all for $25.

Friday: Sam Roberts, Kathleen Edwards, Justin Nozuka
Saturday: 54-40, The Spoons, Skydiggers
Sunday: Bruce Cockburn, Mark Seymour, Catherine MacLellan

The shows are held in Memorial Park on the shore of Credit River, just off Stavebank Road. Port Credit is a very small area and you really can't miss the Festival area. Expect large crowds and if at all possible take Mississauaga Transit or the GO Train. The Port Credit GO Station is located a block away from Memorial Park. Parking is typically gone early and GO doesn't officially allow parking in their lots for non-customers. The area around the concerts has lots of activities for adults and kids all day including a full midway located in the parking lot of the Port Credit Library

Hope to see you there its going to be a lot of fun. For more information check out the Mississauga Waterfront Festival website.
