Wasaga Beach announces summer live music lineup, with over 30 concerts
As Wasaga Beach continues one of its most ambitious redevelopment projects in its history, including the demolition of several longstanding buildings along the iconic Beach Area One, the Town has its sights set on celebrating this summer with the announcement of its Summer 2025 Live Music Lineup.
'While we kick-off the reinvention of our main commercial area at Beach Area 1, we are also ready to kick-off an incredible summer,' said Mayor Brian Smith. 'The beach is just the beginning.'
The beachfront town is planning to entice residents and visitors with more than 30 concerts, including outdoor live performances, fireworks shows, and movies under the stars.

Headliners include Canadian rock group The Carpet Frogs, Elton John tribute artist Elton Rohn, and Queen Flash, a tribute to the legendary British rock band. Performances will be held at various venues, including the beachfront and Oakview Woods Gazebo, with something for every musical taste - from jazz and reggae to blue and classic rock.
The summer concert kicks off June 27 at the Wasaga Stars Arena. Other major events include the return of Trail Tunes on June 7 and the annual Stonebridge Wasaga Beach Blues Festival in September.
Alongside the music, the town offers a full slate of family-friendly programming. Food trucks will set up shop in a new 'Fun Zone' at Beach Area One, and outdoor movie nights begin July 2 with a screening of Wicked. Events like the 5K Foam Fest on July 19 and the Multisport Triathalon on August 23 are also set to return.
The Town encourages residents and visitors to explore the new events while watching the community's transformation unfold - a process that may signals a new chapter for the town's shoreline.
