Large-scale Canada Day celebrations will return to the national capital July 1, with most of the action taking place in a park just west of Parliament Hill.
Daytime and evening shows are scheduled for LeBreton Flats Park, capped off by a dazzling fireworks display.
Canadian Heritage says the extensive renovations to Parliament HillB´ÎÔª¹ÙÍøÍøÖ·™s Centre Block prompted the move away from the usual site of Canada Day festivities.
The celebrations will feature a lineup of musicians, including Juno Award winners Charlotte Cardin, Chantal Kreviazuk, DJ Shub and Walk Off the Earth.
Shub, a Mohawk DJ and music producer dubbed the godfather of powwow step, is one of a number of Indigenous artists set to appear at the celebrations.
Various activities are also slated for Place des festivals Zibi, just across the Ottawa River in Gatineau, Que.
