Ontario’s largest beach party kicks off this August long weekend

Get ready to rock at Ontario’s largest beach party! The annual Sauble Beach Party returns this August, and if you haven’t already purchased tickets, you’ll definitely want to, and soon.

Celebrating its fifth year, the beloved beachside event is bringing some of the biggest names in country and Canadian rock music under one sunny roof.

Festivities are taking place over the long weekend, from Aug. 29 to 31, 2025. It’s less than a three-hour drive from Toronto, so whether you decide to make it a one-day trip or camp over the weekend, you have options. But before I break down the prices, let’s get into the performances and what you can expect at the event.

Who is headlining the Sauble Beach Party?

Over 30 bands and two DJs will take part in the festival, but as for who is headlining, there are a few heavy hitters.

On the first night of the event, The Reklaws and Tyler Braden will bring the heat to the stage. The perfect way to start the weekend of festivities.

Then on Saturday, Brett Young and Brett Kissel will headline and on Sunday, Marianas Trench, along with Shawn Desman, Classified and Faber Drive.

Talk about nostalgia.

What else can I do at the event?

Enjoy over 10 interactive games, a foam party, a dance battle, and an a cappella riff off. According to organizers, the fun doesn’t end there.

There will also be a slip and slide along with premium bars, unreleased Cottage springs flavours, Team LTD activation area, 1858 Caesar bars, CoCo Rum bar, Budlight and Corona areas. The list goes on.

When does the festival start?

The festival starts at 8 a.m. on all festival days, ending at 10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, and at 6 p.m. on Sunday.

For those planning on camping, campsites can only be purchased by those who have a weekend pass. Those can be purchased here.

But if you would rather not stay the entire weekend, individual day passes can be purchased instead. Prices start at $101.69.

Excited for what’s on the lineup? Get your tickets ASAP. A few have already sold out.

Don’t miss out.
