Ontario's River & Sky Music/Camping Festival has revealed its 2019 lineup, roping in the likes of Fucked Up, U.S. Girls, Hollerado and Fast Romantics.

The festival takes place July 18 to 21 on the banks of Ontario's Sturgeon River, between Sudbury and North Bay. In addition to those headliners, the fest will include Orville Peck, Yamantaka // Sonic Titan, Luna Li, DOOMSQUAD, Rapport, Little Junior, Pottery, MUNYA, Tommy & the Commies, Annie Sumi, Dirty Princes, Oli Palkovits, Mother Tongues, the Blaze Velluto Collection, Kristine Schmitt, Bad Waitress and more.

"We want to celebrate inclusivity and acceptance with our lineup from across Canada and the world. We're excited to feature Altin Gün, an Amsterdam based band playing Turkish folk with a 1970s psychedelic-funk twist, Mdou Moctor, and his Tuareg band from Niger, who has been called the 'Hendrix of the Sahara,' the Austin duo Little Mazarn, with ethereal banjo and vocals by Lindsey Verrill, and New York City's Gladys Lazer, the project of Tel Aviv-born drummer Gal Lazer," said festival director Peter Zwarich in a statement. "We want everyone to soak in some nature and summertime vibes and feel at home at R&S."

A few more bands, artists, and the late-late-night dance party DJs will be announced in the coming weeks.

But right now, tickets and passes are on sale now and come in a variety of packages. You can get more info through River and Sky's official website.
