Rock for Healing: Brewfest with Purpose at 100 Acre Brewing

Saturday, September 27
100 Acre Brewing Co

Saturday, September 27, 100 Acre Brewing Co. turns into something sacred—but louder, greasier, and full of heart. DreamTeam Concerts is unleashing “Brewfest: A Right To Heal”, a benefit for Red Path Wellness Centre, and everything is dialed up to full festival mode.

What’s on the lineup? Two full-throttle stages. Eleven local acts ready to burn it down:

  • Ty Wilson, Brad Renaud, Sarah Jayne Riley
  • Jeanne Truax & Emily Burgess, Joslynn Burford
  • Baz Littlerock, Bon Jovi Forever (that’s right—tribute energy, high voltage)
  • Monkey Wrench (Foo Fighters Tribute), High Waters Band, Midnight Jewel, Misfits in Action, and The Gunslingers

Beyond the riffs and choruses, there’s a 3 p.m. cornhole tournament, a raffle table packed with prizes, hearty food from Lowlands Fire Food, and, of course, craft beers flowing cold.

This isn’t your typical benefit—it’s an all-day party with purpose, where every song, every pint, every laugh helps someone piece their life back together.

And the timing is electric. Just weeks earlier, on September 9, Peggy Shaughnessy—the driving force behind Red Path—will be inducted into the Peterborough Walk of Fame, a nod to decades of creating safe havens for people wrestling with trauma and addiction. Now the community gets to pay that forward.

So grab your crew, pick your stage, and show up. This is music, beer, and healing rolled into one. Brewfest isn’t just a concert—it’s a community choosing to take care of itself, loud and proud.
