First COVID-19 and now the Schneider Springs wildfire. Pick your calamity but, either way, the annual Chinook Fest weekend concert at Jim Sprick Community Park has been forced to cancel for the second consecutive year.
The 2021 Chinook Fest line-up of musicians and bands along with accompanying schedule was released today (July 28) and it appears to be as rock solid as ever in the nearly decade old festival.
The wait is almost over for lovers of Live Music and outdoor fun all rolled into one weekend! After two years away, your favorite local music festival is BACK! Chinook Fest 2021 is on!
The BGP is a popular band throughout spots in the Northwest, and they give a blend of smooth R&B with a unique retro vibe. They were contestants on America's Got Talent not once but TWICE, that's how great they are!
Even though the 2020 incarnation of the wildly popular outdoor musical weekend didn't occur this September (I'll bet you can guess why!), fans were still treated to a virtual concert online a few weeks ago. For those that purchased a ticket, a swag bag was sent in appreciation and, I must say, the souvenirs this year are on point!
If you are planning to attend the 8th annual Chinook Music Fest Sept. 6-8, heads-up! Those who only plan on going for one day will need to purchase a parking pass or take the free shuttle to and from Jim Sprick Community Park this year as the parking area is full!
Jayleigh Ann & The Lost Boys open tonight's get-together on historic North Front Street -- the next-to-last installment of this year's Downtown Summer Nights.
