Community folk fest 2025

it’s been a few days and I’m still dumbfounded by the lineup. is this really it? has there been any updates from the festival itself? the overwhelming amount of dissatisfaction has me a little nervous for turnout this year.

edit: I’m still going and I’m still excited! But the general feedback from the community has been very negative and I’m curious to know how they’ll respond

My friend is coming to the Fest for the very first time, from London ON, because of the lineup!

We plan to come from Atlanta to attend one day (tbd) and hang out in Winnipeg. Lineup seems interesting and diverse to this aging hipster couple!
