If you've been hearing rumours that The Dears will play a free show at Toronto's Harbourfront Centre, they're true.

Rumours the band would play a show on the shores of Lake Ontario began circulating soon after the Harbourfront Centre announced its World Routes festival schedule in May, but they weren't confirmed until now. The Dears have posted the gig, which will go down July 26, on their list of tour dates on their MySpace page.

The Dears last played the Harbourfront Centre on Canada Day, 2006 with Jason Collett.

Holy Fuck, Winter Gloves, Jenn Grant, Gentleman Reg and Amy Millan are among those who will play free sets at the Harbourfront Centre this summer.
