Hamilton’s Arkells reached out to fans on social media Wednesday inviting them out to the first of several Campfire Nights set for mid- to late-July.

The rain or shine events feature an intimate, stripped-back version of the band repertoire in addition to sing-a-longs with concertgoers.

The first of the intimate concerts, earmarked for about 2,500 listeners on July 15, will be at Base31 in Prince Edward County, a new cultural and entertainment destination on the former site of a WWII air training base.
