Gussapolooza Music Festival

Gussapolooza Music & Arts Festival is a welcoming, all-ages weekend built for the whole family — and everyone who loves live music and community. Returning to Cookstown, Ontario August 21–23, 2026, this three-day grassroots celebration brings together emerging and established artists across rock, folk, pop, country, and hip hop on multiple stages. Beyond the music, there's something for everyone: creative workshops, live art installations, a dedicated kids zone, a health & wellness area, food trucks, local craft vendors, and festival camping under the stars. Weekend passes start from $139.99 and include tent camping — day passes available from $24.99. Come for the music. Stay for the community.
