Toronto Virgin Festival Location Mistakenly Revealed?

The Toronto edition of the Virgin Festival could be moving to Burl's Creek Family Event Park in Oro, Ont. this year. Burl's Creek is between Barrie and Orillia and hosted a show by Jack Johnson last year.
A listing (which has since been removed) was published on the Toronto Virgin Festival MySpace page stating the festival would take place at that site on Aug. 29 and 30.
Toronto's Virgin Festival was held at Toronto Island Park last year and featured performances by Oasis, Foo Fighters, Stereophonics, The Kooks, Constantines and others.
No official announcement has been made about the venue or the event's lineup, but we're willing to bet if you take several high profile Canadian bands who are releasing records this year and remove those who are playing Edgefest in June, at least a few of them will play the Toronto Virgin Festival.
Add in a few top international acts like what may be the biggest band in the world right now (who are playing a lot of festivals this summer), and you have a pretty probable lineup.
A Virgin Festival spokesperson told Calgary's 660 News radio station that the event could return to that city again this year. Stone Temple Pilots, The Tragically Hip and The New Pornographers were among those who played the event last year.
