“Collingwood’s Live and Original Music Initiative aims to create opportunities for musicians to connect, collaborate, and cultivate their craft. There are a lot of talented young musicians in our region producing original work and places to perform in front of a live audience can be limited. Sunset Sessions provides a valuable performance opportunity,” shares Collingwood’s manager of culture and events, Karen Cubitt.
“This concert is also another chance for residents and visitors to explore the newly redesigned Sunset Point Park including the outdoor stage, just one of the exciting new features.”
Whether you’re a teen or just young at heart, Sunset Sessions is the place to be on May 27. Bring friends and family to rock out at Sunset Point.
Sunset Sessions is proudly presented by the Town of Collingwood in partnership with the Collingwood Youth Centre, with special thanks to Paige Warner of the Summerfolk Owen Sound Youth Discoveries Program.
Paid parking will be in effect for visitors. Waterfront parking is free for residents who register in advance for their permit. Learn more: www.collingwood.ca/waterfront-parking.
