The Festival Song

Music has always been a big part of the Festival of Northern Lights; many of the events during the 52 day Festival centre around this region's musical talent. Our Festival is one of the few which can boast having its own song.

It was the idea of Owen Sound lawyer Ted Horton, who commissioned musician extraordinaire A. G. 'Bert' Hood to come up with a catchy number for our Tenth Anniversary in 1997.

The Festival of Northern Lights

It's the Festival of Northern Lights
Time to have some fun on frosty nights
There will be . . . Lots to see
At the Festival of Northern Lights

Bring the family to see the sights
All together we can hit new heights
Come along . . . Sing a song
At the Festival of Northern Lights

Come to Downtown Owen Sound
Come from many miles around
Catch the . . . Spirit
Come on everybody . . . Do it!

You can do your part and light your lights
Make our City glow on winter nights
Don't miss the show . . . You really must go
To the Festival of Northern Lights

Come and celebrate again and again
Phone up all the friends you know and then
See you there . . . In the fresh night air
At the Festival of Northern Lights
