There’s a huge, one-time music festival coming to Alberta with comedy, camping, and daily happy hours

Imagine yourself swaying to the beat of live music under the warm, setting sun. You have a cold drink in your hand, your favourite band is next on the festival stage, and you’ve got a cozy campsite waiting for you when the day is done. 

You know what? Don’t even imagine it, because you can experience it this summer for yourself!

The iconic Pigeon Lake Music Festival is hosting a special one-time Summer Showcase on the Saturday and Sunday of the Canada Day long weekend – and it’s going to be epic. 

Start your Canada Day celebrations with gusto with live music and comedy, camping, food vendors, family-friendly activities, and daily happy hour specials.

Here’s everything to look forward to at the Pigeon Lake Music Festival Summer Showcase…

What To Expect

This special, one-time event is the perfect way to spend the Canada Day long weekend. Snag a scenic camping spot and enjoy top artists, great food, and loads of laughs. 

Oh, and kids 12 and under get in for free – so you can bring the whole family! 

Weekend Camping

If you’re driving to Pigeon Lake, you might as well stay a while and enjoy the scenery! There’s affordable weekend camping on-site, with reservations for up to 6 people starting below $75.

While the Summer Showcase will take place on Saturday and Sunday, June 29th to 30th, camping availability starts as early as Thursday, June 27th and you can stay until Monday, July 1st at no additional cost.

Daily Happy Hour

It’s not a summer music festival without some cold, refreshing bevvies! There will be a daily happy hour (or rather, hours) on both Saturday and Sunday from 11 AM to 6 PM.

Drink prices range from $3 to $6! The legal minimum for selling alcoholic beverages is $2.75, so these prices are so low it’s barely legal!
