What's Good in Niagara? Concerts on the Canal unveils 2026 lineup

The lineup for Welland's Concerts on the Canal summer series has been released, with six nights of music playing the soundtrack to the city's downtown core. 

Coordinator Aaron Berger says the free series has some fans that make sure to make it to every single show. 

Between June 5th and September 4th, a wide variety of musical stylings will take over the city's floating Merritt Park Amphitheatre on King Street. 

Berger says that floating stage is what makes this series so unique to Welland. 

This year's lineup includes:
June 5th: LMT Connection, Phil Davis and The Mandevilles
July 1st: Vinyl Flux, Revolver & Friends and Charissa
July 17th: Reggaddiction and Road Waves
July 31st: Spencer Mackenzie and Soul Jam
August 21st: Acrobat (U2 tribute band) and Gravely
September 4th: Epic Eagles (Eagles tribute band) and Neo Young (Neil Young tribute)

Gates for the series open at 6:00pm, with music starting at 7:00pm. There are also a number of vendors at each show.
