Dragon Boat

USS closed out the 2019 Ottawa Dragon Boat Festival at Mooney’s Bay Park.

After a fantastic Day 2 Friday that turned into a massive East Coast kitchen party with Alan Doyle, Day 3 of the Ottawa Dragon Boat Festival Saturday features another trio of Canadian artists.

Some of Ottawa’s best events are when the many East Coast expats get together for a kitchen party in their adoptive city.

Headlining the opening night is Half Moon Run. While they may technically be based in Montreal, lead singer Devon Portielje hails from our fair city, so we claim them as our own as well.

The solstice is upon us. It is the first weekend of the summer and the city is alive with countless ways to celebrate the official arrival of this beautiful season.

The Ottawa Dragon Boat Festival takes place at Mooney’s Bay Park from June 20–23, 2019. Admission is free.

Another great year of free concerts ended with a spectacular double rainbow over the entire crowd.

See Broken Social Scene, Wintersleep, Gianna Lauren, Hollerado, and many more perform free concerts at the Dragon Boat Festival this weekend, June 21–24.

The Dragon Boat Festival concert series is taking place at Mooney’s Bay Park from June 21–24, 2018. Admission is free.

The 2017 edition of the Ottawa Dragonboat Festival concert series comes together June 22 to 24 with a stacked lineup of Canadian talent from all over this great nation. Plenty of Juno Award winners and nominees spread across the three days of concerts will be sure to attract young and old fans alike.
