    The ten day event will include an ATV food tour to Lark Harbour.

    The City of Corner Brook has announced the lineup for this year’s Jigs and Wheels Festival and it will include events in the Bay of Islands. Mayor Jim Parsons says thousands of people visited the area during the first Jigs and Wheels festival last year. He says people aren’t coming here just to see Corner Brook. Mayor Parsons says they’ve added an autocross event at the civic centre, dirt bike and electric bike demonstrations at Marble Mountain, and a food-atv tour to Lark Harbour. Jigs and Wheels is a ten day event packed with adventure, music, art, culture, and of course, atv access on all roads. It will be held July 28th to August 6th.
