“It is our longest running event, 36 years this year, and it is the kickoff to summer in LaSalle.”
The parade will take place June 8, beginning at Turkey Creek Bridge on Front Road at 10 a.m. and ending at Sacred Heart Drive.
Other highlights include the Krusher BMX stunt team, an extreme sport entertainment show, which is scheduled multiple times throughout the festival.
Professional athletes perform flips and spins at dizzying heights and speeds and an interactive session follows each show.
Musical headliners include Tecumseh’s Carson Janik, who is touring Ontario in support of his debut country album Neon to Lean On, on June 7.
Country music recording artist Shannon Beresford takes the stage June 8 at Taylor’s Story, a Taylor Swift tribute artist performing what is billed as a theatrical spectacle that will “transport the audience into the heart of Taylor Swift’s world.”
A full schedule of events and entertainment and other festival details will be available closer to the date at lasalle.ca.
The Vollmer Complex is located at 2121 Laurier Pkwy in LaSalle.
