Following last year's inaugural edition in Toronto, organizers behind the CBCMusic.ca Festival have announced they're moving to Burnaby, BC, for round two, which will feature performances from the likes of Tegan and Sara, Spoon and more.

A press release confirms that the outdoor festival is set to take place just outside Vancouver at Burnaby's Deer Lake Park on June 14. In addition to twin sisters Tegan and Sara and feted popsmiths Spoon, the day will also feature a Canada-heavy roster, including sets from Chad VanGaalen, Arkells, Hannah Georgas, Wake Owl, Belle Game and Crystal Shawanda.

The concert will be hosted by Q's Jian Ghomeshi, with other CBC personalities like Stephen Quinn, Gloria Macarenko, Renee Filippone and more popping by throughout the day. Performers from comedy program The Irrelevant Show will also be staging a performance.

Tickets to the CBCMusic.ca Festival go on sale this Friday (April 4) and will cost $59.50, plus service charges.
