Attendees can look forward to 80 live musical performances hosted across 24 venues, including local restaurants, bars, coffee houses, and galleries. Notable spots such as Smitty’s Food Court and Lestat’s Coffeehouse will feature outdoor performances, enhancing the festival's dynamic atmosphere. The historic Normal Heights United Church will serve as the Main Stage, also hosting the Community Beer Garden, where guests can enjoy a VIP Food & Drink Deal for $25, featuring offerings from Ponce's Mexican Restaurant and Mission Brewing.
This year's headliner is Terry Reid, affectionately known as 'Superlungs.' Reid is celebrated as one of Great Britain's most remarkable rock and soul voices. His storied career includes turning down the frontman role for Led Zeppelin, recommending Robert Plant instead, and touring with legendary acts like The Rolling Stones, Cream, and Fleetwood Mac. Aretha Franklin once praised Reid alongside The Beatles and The Rolling Stones as the best England had to offer.

Comfortable walking shoes are recommended to fully explore and enjoy the diverse offerings along Adams Avenue.
