Heat Wave Has Us Singin’ The Blues!

With temperatures hovering in the 90s this weekend, Bluesfest organizers welcomed diehards willing to brave the crazy heat to take in the sights and sounds of their annual party!

Our Festival crews battled the scorching sun to setup what has become an awesome event showcasing the trendy “world of blues“. With swanky sounds and soulful treats, and of course a series of Festival tents to shade folks from the blazing sun, The International Bluesfest was a success once again. Performers like Tim Robbins and Scott Holt ensured that a funky fun time was had by all! Cheers to Ted, Louise and their team! Take a look at the fantastic picture taken this weekend!

Another one of our regular events, The Belle River Sunsplash, also took place this past weekend in the sweltering heat. Complete with portable washrooms, a large 40’ wide tent and one of our spectacular 35’ x 40’ hex tents setup atop a stage, our Festival team provided the Belle River BIA with a superb setup. Congrats to Janel and her fellow organizers on another successful year! Check out the photo below!

Sizzlin’ Summer Fun!

The sun was blazin’ this past weekend, as Festival Epicure returned to the newly re-designed Festival Plaza!
Rows of 10x10, 15x15 and 20x20 food and beverage tents lined the riverfront while a large beer & liquor tent adorned the centre of the awesome layout. Our grey vinyl folding chairs were setup theatre style in front of the fabulous new stage offering folks a comfy place to chill out and enjoy the sounds of Epicure. As always, our ever-popular stand up cocktail tables were on hand contributing to the casual yet sophisticated atmosphere.

Check out the pictures our Festival Team captured during setup! Be sure to have a look at those taken throughout the weekend as well. Way to go Ken Brandes - cheers to you and your team on another job well done!

Another annual summertime party, also on our schedule this past weekend, was the Essex Fun Fest. People braved the scorching heat to make their way to Essex to take part in the festivities. Our tent and portajohn crews worked very hard to provide both the Town of Essex and all of those attendees an awesome setup for which to enjoy!

Hopefully you made it out to one or both of these fantastic local events!
