The event was originally scheduled to take place June 7–9, but was rescheduled due to a lack of available paid-duty OPP of- cers to provide security. Although the weekend saw perfect weather for this outdoor festival, event organizers said that attendance, which had exceeded 15,000 people in 2018, was down about 50 per cent.
