Countdown to Gil’s Hootenanny 2026

Just days left until the 17th annual, and last, Gil’s Hootenanny on May 1st.

The legendary Ken Whiteley, prolific songwriter, gifted and versatile musician and powerful singer, will headline the 17th annual Gil’s Hootenanny. Whiteley delights his audiences with his participatory humour, grace, and energy. His music communicates themes of freedom, love and social commentary, making him a perfect fit for the Gil’s Hootenanny’s sing-along concert format.

The Hootenanny will also feature a “kitchen party” singalong featuring members of the Gil’s Hootenanny team as the opening act.

As folk music legend Pete Seeger once said, “A good song reminds us what we’re fighting for”.
