Opening the three-day summer concert is Canadian Music Hall of Fame singer-songwriter, Tom Cochrane and Red Rider on Wednesday, July 8.

Next is the award-winning singer-songwriter Burton Cummings and his band on Wednesday, July 22.

And finally, the series ends on Thursday, Aug. 6 with award-winning singer-songwriter Amanda Marshall.

Music Hall of Fame

"Attending a concert beneath the summer sky at our stunning outdoor Amphitheatre is a truly remarkable experience," said Anthony von Mandl. "There's something magical about enjoying live music in this intimate hilltop setting -- a summertime tradition in the Okanagan that echoes the grand tradition of Europe's historic open-air amphitheatres. We're delighted to welcome these outstanding musicians and our winery guests to Mission Hill Family Estate this summer."

The returning event gives guests a chance to enjoy a summer evening of music, wine and food with a backdrop showing the Okanagan Valley with mountains and the lake.

Guests can dine at the Al fresco Terrace restaurant and the estate's Loggia, which have prepared wine-paired meals. Attendees can also enjoy a gourmet picnic experience along with a menu of ready-to-go selections offered by the Delta Grand Okanagan.
