Folk On The Rocks 40th Annual Music Festival

FOTR is one of Canada’s top summertime music and cultural festivals, drawing performers from all across Canada for the North’s biggest party under the midnight sun.

With heavy hearts, the team behind Folk On The Rocks has made the decision to postpone the 40th Anniversary Festival until 2021.

During the span of this pandemic, we held onto hope and optimism that our July timeline would allow us to go forward, and celebrate the end of the quarantine. However, as the public health emergency continues, it has become evident that we will not be able to host a safe festival this summer.

All 2020 festival ticket holders are eligible to receive a full refund.

We are asking ticket holders to complete this form by April 30th, which also provides patrons with the option to donate the value of their ticket back to Folk On The Rocks. A gesture that we recognize may not be possible for many of our community members during this time, but we are immensely grateful for those who can. Ticket holders can expect to receive a refund no later than May 14, 2020. 

Even though Folk On The Rocks 2020 will be unable to go ahead, we’ve decided to celebrate staying 39 for another year with a series of limited-edition. merchandise. For a limited time, two unique designs are available as a t-shirt, crewneck, tote bag, and baby onesie for our littlest folkers. We wouldn’t be true northerners if we didn’t take advantage of the opportunity to make more local merch. Shop our designs here.

Thank you for your ongoing support of music and the value of the arts - now, more than ever, the creative community is grateful for supporters like you.
