GUSSAPOLOOZA MUSIC AND ARTS FESTIVAL ANNOUNCES 2025 LINEUP FEATURING SPECIAL GUESTS BLEEKER, GRANT BOYER AND RETURNING FAN FAVOURITES
The Gussapolooza Music and Arts Festival is back—and the official 2025 lineup has just been announced! Taking place August 22–24, 2025, in vibrant Cookstown, Ontario, this year’s festival features special guests Bleeker & Grant Boyer alongside returning Gussapolooza award winners: Manic Boys and Girls Club, Harley Olivia, and Cudbear. They’ll be joined by an eclectic lineup of emerging artists from across the country for a weekend packed with creativity, energy, and inspiration.
More than a music festival, Gussapolooza is a family-friendly celebration of community, creativity, and connection. Guests can explore immersive experiences like the Kids Zone, a tranquil Health & Wellness Zone, interactive art installations, local artisan vendors, and more, offering something for everyone.
Festivalgoers can also enjoy a full weekend stay with a variety of camping options, including RV power sites, designated family camping, and access to onsite showers, ensuring a fun and convenient festival experience for all.
“We’re beyond excited to welcome Bleeker, Grant Boyer and so many incredible artists to Cookstown this summer,” said Russell Robson, Founder and Organizer of Gussapolooza. “Gussapolooza has always been about more than music—it’s a community-driven, family-friendly celebration where people of all ages can come together, connect, and be inspired by the arts. We can’t wait to share this experience with everyone again in 2025.”
Gussapolooza is also proud to announce a meaningful new partnership with Stevenson Memorial Hospital. A portion of all ticket sales will go directly toward funding the hospital’s new state-of-the-art facility, strengthening access to healthcare in the surrounding community.
Tickets are now on sale, and the full artist lineup is available at www.gussapolooza.com.
