Buskerrific
Despite a brief thunderstorm on Saturday afternoon, Kingston’s 21st Buskers Rendezvous went off without a hitch. The 4-day event attracted droves of cash-spending spectators, who enjoyed a wide array of talent throughout the pedestrian friendly downtown.

I’ve never been here at this time of year to experience the Busking festival so I’m pretty excited about it. Of course there are some other things to check out between fire breathing and [...]

The Buskers Are Coming
I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that Kingston’s “special” event calendar is rather sparse, and during certain parts of the year it is downright embarrassing. To clarify, today’s post won’t focus on the new under-used K-Rock Centre, as I’m more concerned with the other big crowd pleaser’s that attract people [...]
