DESCRIPTION:The Board of Directors of the rebranded Lightfoot Festival\, formally known as Lightfoot Days Festival\, are very pleased to announce that this year’s festival will be held October 29th\, 30th and 31st\, 2026\, in the hometown of Canada’s very own\, Gordon Lightfoot. \nGordon’s musical accomplishments brought him Grammy nominations\, Juno Awards\, Songwriting awards\, and recognition on Canada’s Walk of Fame\, just to name a few. \n“We are excited to announce that The Lightfoot Band will be our headliners this year\, performing at the famed Orillia Opera House\, in the Lightfoot Auditorium on Thursday October 29th\, at 7:30pm\,” said John Winchester\, President of the Board. \nAfter Gordon’s death in 2023\, his band decided to continue to share his songs. These are the seasoned musicians who not only collaborated with Gordon on his recordings\, they toured extensively with him across North America and internationally. \n“I was with Gordon for 48 years\, touring and recording\,” says drummer Barry Keane. “It’s the songs that people love\,” says Keane\, noting the band plays the hits\, as well as some deeper cuts. \n“We’re playing the songs the way we played them with Gordon\,” says Keane. “We all consider it a privilege to be able to do what we’re doing\,” he says. \nAfter the show\, be sure to join the band for a meet and greet session on the main floor. \nWe are excited to announce that this year’s ticket prices are $68.00 for all floor seats\, $50.00 for all balcony seats and we are very pleased to announce that all youth 18 and under\, are $18.00.
