Ottawa’s CityFolk Music Festival boasts star-studded lineup

Ottawa's star-studded CityFolk Festival lineup announced

Iggy Pop, Arkells, Bush, Kaleo and many more will take to the CityFolk Festival TD Stage this September

OTTAWA, Wednesday, May 17, 2023 – Ottawa’s CityFolk festival organizers today announced a star-studded lineup for its 26th annual music festival. It includes huge talents like dynamic living legend, Iggy Pop, Ontario’s own hitmakers, Arkells, ’90s Brit-rockers Bush, Iceland’s popular blues rockers, Kaleo and many more. This follows the announcement in April that Hozier will be closing out the festivities on September 17.

Ottawa’s top Autumn Music Festival CityFolk features 5 Days of Incredible music, and excitement and tickets are selling fast. In addition to the major music acts descending on the Canada’s capital, the festival is offering special children’s and family performances.

“We’re very pleased with the lineup we put together for 2023,” says CityFolk executive and artistic director, Mark Monahan, “We managed to book a number of top-notch performers, including many that we’ve had our eye on for some time now.

CityFolk will be staged on The Great Lawn at Lansdowne Park from Wednesday, September 13 to Sunday, September 17—the lineup includes:
