CKUA Summer: Down by the River Festival

CKUA Summer

CKUA Summer is winding down, and what a summer it has been! We’re here for a couple more weeks bringing you the best of summertime music to close out the season.

We’re closing out summer in style with Down by the River Fest, the latest addition to Edmonton’s vibrant summer festival scene. This brand-new festival will be making waves on the banks of the North Saskatchewan on September 13-14.

Join us in Louise McKinney Park for this two-day festival featuring a bold blend of genres, bringing together some of Canada’s most exciting emerging artists with standout international talent. Attendees can expect dynamic sets from headliners Ruby Waters and Chaparelle, as well as support from Boy Golden, Cat Clyde, Daniel Romano’s Outfit, and more!

Want a sneak peak of what’s in store? Listen to Traffic Jams on Friday, September 5 at 4pm MT, when host Lisa Wilton takes a deep dive into Down by the River’s lineup. She’ll also welcome creative director Sahib Quraishi for an interview, along with Andrew Brostrom from The Denim Daddies. Be sure to tune in for more behind-the-scenes stories and highlights to get you excited for this brand-new festival.
