Crescendo Fest will span two days, with a conference set for Aug. 4 at the Light House Arts Centre and the concert scheduled for Aug. 5 in Parade Square. Both events will be free to attend.

The festival was put together to "turn up the volume on Black music artists," according to the event's website.
