\ PORT CREDIT, MISSISSAUGA \

The 18^th annual Southside Shuffle Festival (aka Tim Hortons Southside Shuffle Blues and BBQ Festival nowadays) takes over the burg of Port Credit this weekend, bringing live music to a number of places that normally don’t offer it along with the several local clubs that do in this very musically alive little burg tucked away in the southeast corner of Mississauga along Lake Ontario.

Twelve club venues and four stages in Memorial Park (including two free ones) are active tonight starting around dinner time and the action continues through Sunday with Saturday afternoon’s Street Shuffle being the highlight for many.  From noon till 6 that day Lakeshore Road East is closed to traffic, with 20+ locations offering acts —all either Blues or related genres such as Jazz and Roots—outdoors absolutely free.

Full musical listings for today appear below in our listings section for 905 West and you can get a peek ahead at what’s coming, as well as other attractions offered by what organizers describe as “Mississauga’s Musical Mardi-Gras,” by visiting the Full Schedule page on the event’s website.
