Get Your Groove On At Starbelly Jam Festival

Get Your Groove On At Starbelly Jam Festival

Starbelly Jam is a special festival, celebrating diverse music and arts for all the family in Crawford Bay. Not too big and not too small, this is a “just right” festival Goldilocks couldn’t help but love.

July 5-7, 2024

This real family festival is as soulfully eclectic as the East Shore communities surrounding it. Deliberately steered away from getting too big, or becoming too crowded, everyone is welcome to get their groove here. You'll experience a unique range of artists playing everything from funk, world music, rock, hip-hop, reggae, blues, bluegrass, folk, pop to electronica.
