The inaugural Born and Raised
Born and Raised is a celebration and homecoming for Alexisonfire bandmates Dallas Green, George Pettit, Wade MacNeil, Chris Steele, and Jordan Hastings. The music festival pays homage to the Alexisonfire track bearing its name, serving as a tribute to the hometown that witnessed the humble origins of Alexisonfire, City and Colour, Dine Alone Records, and Bedlam Management.
The inaugural Born and Raised in 2022 featured four electric nights of music, food, and drink, attracting tens of thousands of fervent fans to St. Catharines’ Montebello Park. The music festival included memorable performances from Sam Roberts Band, Broken Social Scene, Billy Talent, NOBRO, Moneen, PUP, and more.
Now back with a vengeance and by immensely popular demand, Alexisonfire, alongside City and Colour, Dine Alone Records, and Live Nation, are once again, bringing the music back to where it all started.
