Big Wreck – Saturday, October 11, 2025
Big Wreck, Canadian rock legends with a signature sound that has defined a generation, will headline the main stage on Saturday, October 11 at the Norfolk County Fair & Horse Show—joined by special guest JJ Wilde!
Fronted by Toronto singer, songwriter, and guitarist Ian Thornley, Big Wreck burst onto the scene in 1997 with their debut album In Loving Memory Of…, featuring the smash hits The Oaf, That Song, and Blown Wide Open. After a hiatus, they returned in 2011 with the platinum-selling album Albatross and its #1 title track, proving their staying power as one of Canada’s most iconic rock bands.
With powerhouse vocals, unforgettable guitar riffs, and a catalog of hits spanning decades, Big Wreck continues to deliver the kind of heavy-hitting live shows that leave fans wanting more. From the ’90s to today, their music remains a staple of Canadian rock.
And making the night even bigger, JJ Wilde—the Juno Award-winning rocker known for hits like The Rush—will bring her fiery vocals and raw, fearless energy to the stage as a special guest.
Together, Big Wreck and JJ Wilde promise an unforgettable night of rock at the Norfolk County Fair & Horse Show.
