SURREY — Bruce Cockburn is among headliners for this summer's Fusion Festival at Holland Park.
Other performers at the yearly event will include Hey Ocean!, The Boom Booms and Aiden Knight.
Fusion Festival, a multicultural celebration of music and food presented by Coast Capital Savings, takes place this year on July 19 and 20. Admission is free for the day-long events.
Last year's event attracted more than 100,000 over the two days, and the 2013 edition was declared Best Festival in the World at the International GALA awards in Nashville, Tennessee.
The activist-minded Cockburn, a Canadian music hall of fame inductee, has released 31 albums of music and has received 13 Juno awards during his long career.
Also at this year's festival, a special Salsa Sunday evening performance will include Orquestra Tropicana and Alpha Yaya Diallo.
Other featured performers include EnKarma, Bocephus King, T-Nile, Australia's Ash Grunwald and Pete Werner.
Debuting on the Sunday morning is a new children's matinee with puppets, stories and singers, including BC Junior Talent Search winners.
