50 years later, the @festoffriends still knows how

50 years later, the @festoffriends still knows how to bring a crowd together! 🎶

there’s something special about standing in gage park, hearing a crowd of people sing along to live music, and remembering that this has all been happening for half a century.

the friday night was filled with music from @dallassmithmusic and other amazing talents. there’s so much great live music ahead this weekend from @feistmusic and an amazing lineup of canadian performers.

while the live music is reason enough to go, there’s so much more waiting throughout this annual festival. it’s also free to attend!

explore local artisan vendors, grab a bite to eat from a wide variety of food trucks and vendors, and take in the atmosphere that has made this festival a summer tradition for generations.

you can still visit this festival all weekend until august 2nd in hamilton!

🍸 @bartonsalumeria
🌭 @wildcat.hamont
🦪 @maisyspearl

these three happen to be a trifecta of @barton_village spots for great sips and eats, with a bonus of being super close to one another.

it’s easy to make an evening of any of these spots (or all of them) depending on what you’re looking for!

if you can already guess the hamilton spots i’m going to feature in the next part, then it means i’m already showing you how often i visit them and why they’re awesome.
