This is the only bus that takes you directly from Toronto (Dufferin Mall) to the Hillside Festival at Guelph Lake Island. All other buses from Toronto just take you to downtown Guelph. This one also takes you back to Toronto on Monday morning. What is more, this one has live music! Yes, John Muirhead will perform on the bus! John comes to us through our partnership with Music Declares Emergency, an excellent organization dedicated to climate action. Special thanks to Guelph Transit for our shuttle buses this year!
John Muirhead is a Canadian troubadour, a campfire storyteller, and a big-hearted folk-rocker. From fingerpicked folk confessionals to upbeat singalongs, John’s award-winning songs have touched audiences across Canada and beyond, building a community of over 50,000 fans online.
Since the release of his debut EP Yesterday’s Smile in 2016, John has earned a Canadian Folk Music Award nomination (Young Performer of the Year, 2017), a Forest City London Music Award nomination (Folk/Roots Artist of the Year, 2020), and has graced the stages of Winnipeg Folk Festival, Sawdust City Music Festival, Philadelphia Folk Festival, and more.
