The French-Canadian classic dish was a huge hit at last year's inaugural Sudbury Poutine Fest, which drew over 21,000 people over the festival weekend.
Organizers have expanded programming efforts for their second annual Poutine Fest, Aug 24-26 while moving the event to Bell Park at 900 Paris St, Sudbury.
"This years' event features multiple poutine vendors servings a wide variety of poutine options, whom will be sourcing most of their ingredients locally," says a festival news release. "Patrons can also indulge in arts, crafts, axe throwing, a kids-zone, face painting, live music and evening headliner concerts featuring Friday night country headliner Jason Blaine, and Saturday night classic-rock headliners Goddo with special guests The Kings."
Saturday night of Poutine Fest is host to an 80’s themed party that will award best 80’s outfits, with a number of prizes including an iPad.
Admission to the food and licensed entertainment grounds is $2 before 8 p.m. $5 thereafter for evening headliner concerts. Evening concerts are 19+ after 8pm.
