CTV Barrie, Pure Country 106, BOUNCE 104.1, and the Downtown Barrie BIA are excited to present the Troubadour Festival Summer Concert Series – a four-part celebration of live music with star-studded performances at Meridian Place.

The series features headliners, including 18-time CCMA award winner Dean Brody, the high-energy, eight-piece supergroup The 99s, critically acclaimed singer-songwriter and multiple Juno award-winner Hawksley Workman, and multi-award-winning country music star Brett Kissel.

The Local Opener Series will showcase emerging regional talent, including Elmvale’s powerhouse vocalist Dayna Reid.

“Events like the Troubadour Festival and Open Air Dunlop are what define our city's spirit. They connect people, energize local businesses, and draw thousands to our beautiful waterfront and downtown core. These experiences help put Barrie on the map—not only as a great place to live, but as a vibrant destination to visit, celebrate, and be inspired,” said Barrie Mayor Alex Nuttall.

CTV Barrie News Director Justin Rydell added, “The Troubadour Festival Summer Concert Series promises to be a vibrant celebration of music and community, drawing fans from across Barrie and the surrounding region. A key part of our mission at CTV Barrie, BOUNCE 104.1, and Pure Country 106 is to inform and entertain audiences across this great community each and every day, and this concert series perfectly embodies that spirit.”

The events are free and open to all.
