Description

Now celebrating nearly three decades, the Tim Hortons Southside Shuffle Blues & Jazz Festival, a non-profit, award-winning event, returns for its 27th year from September 5 to 7, 2025, in Port Credit, Mississauga, Ontario. The festival embraces community spirit with a diverse program featuring one ticketed stage, two free stages, and a lively Saturday afternoon street party showcasing over 20 local acts. With fully licensed areas, an artisan market, and a variety of food vendors, the event creates a welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere that celebrates blues, roots music, and more over three full days. The entire village participates, with bars, restaurants, and coffee shops also offering live bands, turning the jewel of Mississauga into a blues Disneyland.

Tickets for the festival weekend, including access to the ever-popular Bourbon Street tented area, are now on sale. For festival and pre-event tickets, or to learn more about getting involved as a volunteer, vendor, or sponsor, please visit southsideshuffle.ca.
