The Beaumont Music Festival returns to its roots this year, as organizers have released the full artist lineup for the June 19-20 event at the Beaumont and District Agricultural Society fairgrounds in Beaumont, Alberta.
Celebrating its 19th year, the festival is moving back to its original home at the 71.3-acre fairgrounds on the west edge of town. This shift away from the Ken Nichol Regional Recreation Centre follows challenges with weather and rising infrastructure costs, prompting a new direction to ensure the long-term sustainability of the event.
Music fans can look forward to a full weekend of performances on the Main Stage. Friday, June 19, features headliners Crown Lands at 7:45 p.m. and Toque at 9:30 p.m., with gates opening at 4:00 p.m. Saturday, June 20, brings headliners Royal Tusk at 7:00 p.m. and Big Sugar at 9:15 p.m., with gates opening at 1:00 p.m.
A second performance space, the Dream Stage, is sponsored by Élan by Dream and Homes by Avi. This stage will showcase a variety of local acts across both days, including FRACTURED, Radio Receiver, the Nathan Miller Band, Playing With Fire, and Gord Steinke and The Big Stein Band.
Tickets for the event are currently available. Weekend passes are $159 for adults and $99 for students and seniors. Single-day passes are also available for $69 for adults and $49 for students and seniors. Children aged 12 and under can attend for free.
