Blue Mountain Village’s Mountain Music Series launches this summer, with events running from June 26 to September 12. The series will feature celebrated musicians, including three-time JUNO winner Kirk Diamond and Canadian country music star Jason Blaine, with many more performances promising to be unique and unforgettable.
Each event for the music series has its own kind of charm, ranging from salsa lessons paired to live music, reggae performances, Gone Country Music Festival, and even musicians performing along a Guitar Trail hike. If you want a jam-packed excursion and are wondering what to do between sets, don’t worry, we’ve got you covered.
Here are five unique experiences to check out while you’re at Blue. Find more details, including ticket info, at the event’s website.
Explore Blue Mountain Village
There’s tons to do in Ontario’s largest pedestrian village, with 50-plus restaurants, shops and year-round attractions. While you’re there, check out boutiques selling anything from hiking gear to BeaverTails, or homemade fudge from the Olde Stanton Store. You can also pop into the many restaurants in the village and enjoy a wide range of dining options.
Explore Surrounding Nature
While the skiing and snowboarding season might be over, a whole other season of hiking and biking is underway. If you’re the adventurous partier who wants to dance all night and wake up bright and early for an adventure, you can explore the natural caves on the escarpment, do some hiking, zip-lining, and of course, the iconic open-air gondola ride, which gives you a 360-degree view of Blue Mountain right underneath you.
Wellness in the Blue Mountains
In between all the music, you might be craving a little bit of relaxation. The Scandinave Spa offers relaxing thermal baths that will quickly put you to bed (trust me on this one), saunas, massages, spa packages and more. Try Iwa Spa in the village for a volcanic rock therapy experience, designed to deeply relax your body and leave you feeling fully restored. Take a well-deserved self-care day before getting back to the live music.
Ridge Runner Mountain Coaster
A famous attraction on TikTok, this mountain coaster is sure to give you a thrill. Go see some great music and then control the speed at which you go on the Ridge Runner.
See Live Music in the Village
Obviously, a music festival wouldn’t be a music festival without enjoying some music at the edge of the mountain surrounded by friends and performances, whether that’s dancing to some reggae music, taking line dancing classes during the Gone Country Music Festival, or singing along to Green Day hits when the cover band the Burnouts play RockFest.
