Whether music fans will get to “Do the Bearcat” or are just in for “Some Kinda Fun,” the musical lineup at this year’s Kerrfest will have something for everyone.

The annual music festival returns after a year hiatus and on Friday afternoon (August 9) announced David Wilcox and Teenage Head will be heading up its lineup for this year’s event which runs September 6 to 8 at Westwood Park.

Also performing at this year’s festival are other top Canadian acts such as Haywire, Saga, Toronto, Lighthouse, The Lightfoot Band and more.

“There is something for everyone,” said the Kerr Village Business Improvement Association (BIA), which puts on the event along with Kerrfest Kids.

The Kerr Village BIA cancelled the annual festival in 2023 due to rising costs and inflation. Last year’s Kerrfest Kids event took place as scheduled.

The return of the popular festival marks the eighth year the event will be held.

The opening two days of the 2024 festival will feature live musical entertainment, local food venders and sponsor booths, with Sunday dedicated to families and their children.

Gates will open Friday at 5:15 p.m. and opening will be Teenage Head at 6 p.m. Haywire follows at 7:45 p.m. and David Wilcox wraps up the night with a 9:30 p.m. show.

Gates will open at 12:30 p.m. on Saturday. The musical lineup for the afternoon features Blue Avenue at 1:15 p.m., Fiddlestix at 2:30 p.m., and The Lightfoot Band at 4:30 p.m.
