Held annually on the third weekend in July, the festival is intentionally limited to 200 guests, fostering a relaxed, close-knit environment where artists and audiences engage on a personal level. The result is a memorable celebration of live music, community spirit, and the enduring charm of country living.
Featuring performers from across Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba, the festival continues to cultivate a genuine appreciation for original music while honoring the land and traditional values that define life in the Canadian prairies.
