A new multi-day festival is putting down roots in London, Ontario, in November. With over 50 artists slotted to set it off, VENUExVENUE is looking like a good option for any music fest fans wanting to squeeze in one more before the snow drops.

Presented by Indie Week, VENUExVENUE runs November 9, 10, 11 2023, with performances spreading across downtown London throughout six different venues – London Music Hall, Rum Runners, The Richmond Tavern, Fitzray’s Restaurant & Lounge, Poacher’s Arms and The Good Foundation Theatre.
