NEWS RELEASE
GUSSAPOLOOZA MUSIC FESTIVAL
*************************
Gussapolooza Music Festival is proud to announce our partnership with Guitars for Kids (GFK) for our upcoming 2023 festival.

GFK is a charitable organization whose mission is to match quality used guitars to kids in need, and we are thrilled to support their efforts.

The festival is an annual celebration of emerging talent that aims to showcase the best up-and-coming bands and artists from across the country. Our festival is dedicated to celebrating the diversity and creativity of the music industry and discovering the next generation of big-name artists. This year’s festival will take place Sept. 15 to 17, 2023, at the Georgian Bay Steam Show Grounds in Cookstown, with a lineup of talented artists from a range of different genres.

In addition to our festival’s mandate to promote emerging artists, we are also donating a portion of proceeds to GFK and will be collecting donations of quality used guitars during the festival. Local festival goers can also receive a special discount on their festival ticket for donating their guitars in person at The Indie Distributor located in the 400 Market in Innisfil as a thank you for their support of this great cause.

“We are thrilled to be partnering with Guitars for Kids,” said Valerie Robson, one of the main organizers of Gussapolooza Music Festival. “As a parent myself, I know the importance of having music in a child’s life and the impact it can have on their overall well-being.”

GFK is an organization that truly makes a difference in the lives of children, and we hope that our partnership with them will inspire the next generation of music creators. Join us at Gussapolooza Music Festival and help us enrich children’s lives through music in our community.

The festival takes place annually on the third weekend of September in Cookstown. If you’re one of the rare music enthusiasts whose spirit craves adventure, you’ll love the opportunity to discover new music, find a vibrant community of like-minded souls who share your passion, and get to be part of something extraordinarily special.
