The annual (and oddly named) Ottawa Bluesfest will see Red Hot Chili Peppers, Brad Paisley, Duran and Duran, The Lumineers, and Billy Idol as headliners for this year’s fest. Taking place from July 7-17 at LeBreton Flats Park, this is one of Canada’s largest fests of the year. Festival tickets will run $189 for a full pass and can be picked up later on in the week on the official website.
