Northern Lights Festival Boréal releases the lineup for its 45th annual festival at an event April 18.

The reception takes place starting at 5 p.m. at the Art Gallery of Sudbury.

“You're invited to join us for a reception at the Art Gallery of Sudbury for information about this year's festival, including performers, partnerships and more,” a press release said.

“As always, this year's festival will feature a diverse lineup of performers ranging from Canadian legends to the undiscovered masters, from roots to experimental, from tradition to innovation. The NFLB team can hardly wait to let you know all about it.”

The festival has already released the names of a few of this summer's performers, including the married fiddling due of Natalie MacMaster and Donnell Leahy.

Northern Lights Festival Boréal takes place in Bell Park July 8-10.
