Exxon Mobil is the proud presenter of the opening acts, and this year’s openers are all from Atlantic Canada. It will be exciting to hear the great music our region has to offer; keep your eyes on these artists as they continue to grow and make us proud!
This year’s series features nationally-recognized artists as well regional favourites who will appeal to all ages. The 2018 Granville Green lineup is as follows:
July 1 Lennie Gallant with Cassie and Maggie
July 8 Steven Page with Jon Hines
July 15 Bruce Guthro with Jodi Guthro
July 22 The Town Heroes with Party Boots
July 29 Rawlins Cross with The Hypochondriacs
August 5 Fred Penner with Dylan Menzie
As in previous years, the concerts are free and those attending are encouraged to bring a chair or blanket for seating comfort. Nonprofit groups will be fundraising by selling food and tickets each night, and contributions for the foodbank will be received weekly at the vending tent located next to the stage. In case of inclement weather, the Port Hawkesbury Civic Centre will be used as the backup venue.
The Granville Green concert series depends on the generous local sponsors to make the series a success. We’d like to extend a cheer of gratitude to our sponsors who support the series and who believe in bringing quality music and an opportunity for family and friends to come together in Port Hawkesbury.
The 24th Granville Green concert series is brought to you by NuStar, Bear Head LNG, Canadian Heritage, Province of Nova Scotia, TD Bank, Port Hawkesbury Paper, NS Power Point Tupper Generating Station, Kitchen Fest, DCBA, Atlantic Lottery, A1 Pizza, Kent Building Supplies, The Reporter, Sound Source, Maritime Inns, and 1015 The Hawk.
