Iron & Wine, Waxahatchee, The Sheepdogs Headline 65th Edition of Mariposa Folk Festival in 2025

Canada's longest-running folk/roots summer festival has just announced the full lineup of performers for this year's edition, running July 4-6 in Orillia, Ontario.

65 years as an active music festival is a milestone that few events have achieved. Long one of Canada’s most important folk and roots fests, The Mariposa Folk Festival will celebrate that anniversary this summer with a lineup full of prominent folk and roots acts from the United States and Canada.

Headliners at the event, set to run July 4 to 6 to Tudhope Park in Orllia, Ontario, include acclaimed American roots-rock outfit Iron & Wine and Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter Waxahatchee, alongside Canadian rockers The Sheepdogs.
