Despite financial loss, Borealis hopes to shine on
Summer 2015 was an exciting one for Prince Albert with the first ever Borealis Music Festival. Despite a financial loss, Prince Albert Tourism said they’re ready to start planning a 2016 event.
The event, held at Kinsmen Park from July 31. to Aug. 2, featured over 30 local, national, and international acts including headliners The Harpoonist & The Axe Murderer, July Talk, and Yukon Blonde.
In total, about 1200 spectators attended.
“The first year event did take a financial loss but left a lasting impression on residents, tourists, and the artists that performed at the event,” Prince Albert Tourism said in a statement.
