CORNWALL, Ontario – The lineup for the newest summer festival in the city includes a trio of high-caliber talent.

Canadian rockers Cardboard Crowns will also perform.
Cornwall Musicfest tickets go on sale at the announcement party, both online and at the Nav Centre Cafe. The event takes place at the Nav Centre and will have a number of stages for different acts.
