Summer time is festival time, particularly in Canada.
People love to get together outdoors with family, friends and friends-to-be to cut loose to live performances in the sun or under starry skies when the weather is inviting. It’s not for no reason that “festival season” is applied to the months of May to August. Folks are so keen to take in such happenings that they often buy tickets for the next year’s event before the present one is even done.
Unless a pandemic comes along, that is.
As many readers are well-aware, a lot of 2020 tickets were being held for the festivals postponed until 2021. Many of those are still being held for 2022 and beyond. But don’t despair.

“We know parenting can be challenging on a good day, says festival artistic-director Katherine Carol in a press release, and the pandemic has made life a lot more stressful. Because of this, the Festival is committed to supporting families with pay-what-you-can pricing. Now more than ever, there is an incredible need to experience the joy of the arts.
