That’s a wrap on Westfest 2018. See you next year!

Get out there and enjoy your weekend. Take lots of photos and be sure to tag them with #APT613.

Here’s some great Canadian music to discover.

Westfest 2018 will take place June 8-10 in the heart of Hintonburg. This past weekend, the free festival was celebrated at the lineup launch.

Expect more artists to be announced between now and July.

Watch this space for gig photos every day of the festival. MEGAPHONO runs until February 10, 2018.

Cody Coyote performs on January 25th on the National Arts Centre Fourth Stage at 8:30pm.

Recovery Day is an annual event hosted by the Community Addictions Peer Support Association. It is a public event designed to include the entire community, not just those currently in recovery.

This year’s event will feature performances and speeches by Daphne Willis, Séan McCann and Cody Coyote, among many other inspiring stories.

More than 200 graffiti artists, dancers, hip hop artists and DJs of all levels will gather underneath the Dunbar Bridge for the 14th annual House of PainT Festival (August 24–27, 2017).

As founder Elaina Martin put’s it, Westfest is “the people’s festival.” With Westfest in it’s 14th year, Apt613 talks to Martin about what Westfest is all about, its efforts towards reconciliation, and making Westfest Ottawa’s most accessible and diverse festival.

If you are somebody who has ever struggled with addiction, know someone who has struggled, are celebrating recovery or simply want to learn more about how to support others – come out to Recovery Day.
