THUNDER BAY -- RibFest will be a drive-through affair again in 2021, but it won't be held at the Canadian Lakehead Exhibition grounds. 

Organizers are planning to announce the new location at a news conference on Thursday at Lakehead University, but have said that perennial favourites Ribs Royale and Dinosaur Smokehouse and local restaurant Daytona's will be back at the popular event, which will be held from Aug. 26 to Aug. 29. 

Our Kids Count, the charity beneficiary will be on site volunteering, helping with traffic flow and selling 50/50 tickets.
