Lisa Kearns on the Future of the Sound of Music Festival
Earlier this summer, we presented an episode on the Sound of Music festival. The free music festival is held each Father’s Day weekend in downtown Burlington. The event has attracted big names in the past, like The Trews and The Arkells, to grace their stages. However, since COVID, the costs have risen steadily, and sponsorships have not kept pace. The festival is in dire straits, with 2025 possibly being the last unless a new model is discovered. To that end, the Festival went to the City of Burlington council to find a way to preserve the funding in some capacity.
