The 10th annual River & Sky Music/Camping Festival is just around the bend — coming up this weekend from July 19 to 22.

The festival, set on the Sturgeon River at Fishers’ Paradise in the community of Field, features close to 40 emerging indie bands over its four days, including headliners Born Ruffians, The Pack A.D., Chad VanGaalen and Land of Talk. 

Check out the festival's full lineup here.

Beyond the music, you can check out some great workshops, including observing the night sky with the North Bay Astronomy Club and stand up paddle boarding with Ruby Yoga, along with many more.

Food vendors include Kathleen Street staples Tucos Tacos Lounge, Flurples and Beards, along with Piebird, 'Nish Tacos and more.

“It’s hard to believe it’s been 10 years since we’ve started our music festival camping adventure,” said director Peter Zwarich, in a press release issued back in May.

“Kids have grown into teenagers, others have been born after their parents met at R&S. It still feels like a 1970s family reunion. We’re bringing back some long-time friends to play this year’s festival and bringing in lot of new ones too.”

River & Sky advance pass pricing ended July 13. Visit riverandsky.ca to purchase tickets.
