To bring the very best of the best to our faithful audience is always our aim,and each year the amazing variety of musical styles for all musical tastes is a wonder to behold.

Each year, with the help of countless contributors, we seem to be upholding our reputation for providing a truly meaningful Indian River Festival experience for so many.

Theres so much to do and see in this wonderful Malpeque Bay region, and so much great music going on down that little country road that leads to our astoundingly beautiful venue.
