Rain can’t dampen the spirits of the Brandon Folk, Music and Art Festival.
Now that the clouds are moving on and the rain has passed, it’s time to heat up the main stage once again.
Bring a tarp or some plastic to sit on, as the grounds are still wet, but there are nine acts poised to take to the main stage tonight — and some dancing will dry you right out.
Plus, to make up for the poor weather, we’ve got a deal: $10 off weekend and evening passes!
That means you can get a weekend pass for just $60 and an evening pass for the rest of the night will run you only $25.
Can you beat that deal? Nine acts for $25. No, you can’t beat that deal. So why not beat a path on down to the southeast corner of the Keystone Centre.
Hot deal, hot acts — it’s better than whatever else you had planned.

Tuesday, July 12th at 7:30 PM, the Brandon Folk, Music and Art Festival will be presenting a free screening of the multi-award winning film, Ferron: Girl on a Road. The 2009 film will be shown at the BFMAF office at 130 10th St., in anticipation of Ferron’s upcoming BMFAF appearance. Part performance, part biography, the 2009 film traces the life, the songs, the loves, the heartbreaks and the pioneering path carved by a true folk legend. Intimate yet encompassing, this film is not simply a chronicle, but captures in word and song, the essence and soul of a visionary icon.
The screening will be a perfect primer for those attending Ferron’s rare Canadian performances and workshop at the festival.
Gourmet popcorn will be available but folks are welcome to bring their own cold drinks!
For more information and to view a trailer of Ferron: Girl on the Road visit: http://www.augustaproducti?ons.com/.
