Guitars & Gasoline Returns in 2026

The Guitars & Gasoline Music Festival is officially returning to Calabogie Motorsports Park on June 5–7, 2026, and this year’s edition is shaping up to be the most exciting one yet. What started as a bold idea to bring world-class music to one of Ontario’s most scenic motorsports venues has now grown into a must-attend summer event — blending incredible live performances, stunning landscapes, immersive camping, and a one-of-a-kind festival atmosphere.

For 2026, the lineup features a mix of legendary rock acts, chart-topping country artists, and fast-rising performers who will set the stage on fire all weekend long. Fans can look forward to performances from The Glorious Sons, Dallas Smith, Brett Kissel, Default, Finger Eleven, The Northern Pikes, and Hailey Benedict, making this one of the most well-rounded rosters the festival has ever hosted.

Stay for the Weekend Camping Under the Stars

One of the highlights of Guitars & Gasoline is the onsite camping experience. Guests can choose from:

  • Premium RV & Tent Camping — close to the main stage and festival action
  • Glamping Bell Tents — fully furnished luxury tents for ultimate comfort
  • General Admission Camping — spacious, casual, and perfect for groups

Whether you’re roasting marshmallows, relaxing with your friends, or waking up to music echoing off the hills, camping is where memories are made.

Great Food, Cold Drinks, and a Lot of Good Times

The festival features a curated selection of food vendors serving everything from BBQ and comfort food to pizza, coffee, tacos, and classic festival favourites. And thanks to our beverage partners, cold drinks are always nearby — perfect for hot festival days and warm summer nights.

With more vendors and upgraded bar service planned for 2026, guests can expect an even smoother and more enjoyable experience throughout the weekend.

A Community Effort

Guitars & Gasoline wouldn’t be possible without the incredible support of our partners, sponsors, and volunteers. From staging and lighting crews to hospitality, logistics, and parking operations, it takes a massive, dedicated team to bring this festival to life.

Their hard work ensures a safe, seamless, and unforgettable experience for everyone who attends.
