WE Harvest Back For Second Year

Amherstburg's WE Harvest Festival is back for a second year.

The festival is now under the management of the managers of Windsor's Fork and Cork. It will be held September 8-9 2017 at Fort Malden Historic Site.

Organizer Chris Mickle says they've lined up some great entertainment for Friday and Saturday night.

"Friday night we have Big Wreck coming down. They've been touring all year supporting a new album last year called Albatross and on Saturday night we have a 14 piece brass band coming out of Toronto called My Son the Hurricane," says Mickle.

The festival will also feature five craft brewers, seven wineries and seven local restaurants.

Tickets for the festival are $25 in advance. They are available at ourevent.ca.
