Summerset Music Festival 2021: The Most Anticipated Summer Event
The Summerset Music Festival will bring people back together in an explosive meeting filled with never-ending live music, numerous entertaining activities, and mouth-watering foods and drinks. The music and arts festival will most likely gather thousands of people in the palisades of the Fort Langley National Historic Site in Canada. Such events are always greatly appreciated by people of all ages. The open-area location is an excellent choice not only because of security measures but also because guests will enjoy good music under the night summer skies. The organizers promised that the festival will take place regardless if it’s raining or the sun is shining. They would only cancel it in case its happening may cause harm to visitors due to severe weather. This year, people will most probably be even more delighted due to the fact that the event will be held at two locations. The first one is the Fort Langley National Historic Site, as mentioned above. The second festival, however, is expected to come about in September on the beach of Skaha Lake in South Penticton.
Summerset Music Festival: Fort Langley
Fort Langley is the first half of the grandiose Summerset Music and Arts Festival in Canada. The exact location that’s announced on the event’s official website is “inside the palisades of the Fort Langley National Historic site on the majestic Fraser River”. That’s certainly an excellent choice because the area is spacious enough to fit myriads of individuals. As some of you probably know, this place was a former fur trading post of the large Canadian retail business group The Hudson’s Bay Company. Visitors will be able to take a walk following the asphalt-paved paths. What’s more, the beautiful surroundings and the breathtaking nature give art lovers to take beautiful photos while enjoying the live music events. Summerset Music Festival: Fort Langley will last three days, starting from August 27 until August 29. You wouldn’t have to worry about bringing food or beverages with you because the local vendors will be there to satisfy your hunger and thirst with high-quality productions. You’ll get to pick between beer, fruit juices, sodas, etc. The food options are even greater, including burgers, pizzas, sandwiches, grilled meat, fries, and more. The good news doesn’t stop here. Apart from incredible live performances and delicious food, you’ll also get to enjoy a few other additional activities. If you’re a festival devotee, you’ll have the opportunity to buy some of the merch items, which will be offered in a separate merch area. This way, you’ll leave the event not only with unforgettable memories but with a sweater or a souvenir to remind you of the enormous fun you’d had. People who’ll go to the festival with their children wouldn’t have to worry about them getting bored. A wonderful kid’s play center will be at your disposal throughout the entire time. While you’re having the time of your life listening to your favorite performers, your kids will make merry with their new friends.
Summerset Music Festival: Penticton
The second part of the Summerset Music Festival will take place soon after Fort Langley. On September 17th and 18th, people will have the opportunity to enjoy another two days filled with endless amusement. The Penticton, which is the name of the second Summerset Music & Arts Festival for 2021, will be in no way less fascinating than Fort Langley. Visitors will again get to take wonderful shots throughout the whole festival. Without a doubt, a great number of individuals are even more exciting for the Penticton due to the fact that the event will take place on the beach of Skaha Lake in South Penticton. Many individuals are tempted by the idea of taking a cool sea shower while listening to their favorite songs. At Penticton, the food and drinks will also be provided by local producers. What’s more, there will be several food trucks offering tasty dishes, both hot and cold. Desserts, such as gelato and sorbet, will also be part of the menus. Ice tea, freshly roasted coffee, and cold beer will be just a few of the beverages options. Younger visitors will not only enjoy the music, but will also have the chance to make new acquaintances in the kid’s play center. The lawn game called Cornhole will also be part of the entertaining activities at Summerset Music Festival 2021. During the game, participants take turns and throw bags of corn kernels on a raised board that has an opening in the distant end. The game ends when a player reaches 21 points. If the bag goes in the hole, you win three points. If it stands on the platform, you get one.
