We’re pleased as punch to welcome artists from sea to shining sea to our beautiful city this year; their names may not be familiar, but we’re pretty confident that you’re about to discover your new favourites at PFF 2011. With a reputation for presenting the best emerging Canadian acts, the PFF always brings you music you won’t hear anywhere else in the city.

All of this is only possible thanks to the dedication and work of our Volunteers, who keep the dishes washed, the sound running smoothly, and the festival hopping.  If you’d like to join this charming and well-liked team, click on over to our Volunteers page, where you can see how a few hours of your time can really make a difference to this community event.

Please be advised that the all events will go forward rain or shine as long as we judge it safe to do so; we’ll update this site, as well as our Facebook and Twitter accounts with any cancellations or schedule changes.  Of course, we’re anticipating the most beautiful weather of the year that weekend, so we’re sure it will be absolutely lovely.
