1. How much are the tickets?

The festival has two ticketed performances at the Oakville Centre for the Performing Arts, on the Wednesday and Thursday nights. Please check ticket prices here.

The remainder of the events are on outdoor stages and completely free to the public. No tickets required.

3. What is the telephone number for the Festival?

905-844-4520

4. Can I bring my dog?

Lots of people do. This is governed by municipal by-laws and common sense. There can be some crushing crowds and there is nowhere that we are aware of to quench your pet's thirst or allow them to relieve themselves in a hygienic manner. There are also a lot of open air food vendors so make sure you control your friend well. We saw a really huge Great Dane last year .. very cool.
