Event Description

Blue Skies Music Festival has been an annual summer event that began somewhat casually with a gathering of friends at a natural amphitheatre near Clarendon, north of Kingston, one summer weekend in the early 1970s.
Folk, bluegrass and country music are the main sounds of the Blue Skies Music Festival, and attendee participation is encouraged, through workshops, open stage performances, drum circles and campfire singalongs.

The inclusive and relaxed vibe at Blue Skies Music Festival has made it a very popular event, with weekend camping passes selling out every year. "A great party and a tight community, Blue Skies has also been known since the start as a bit of a musician's festival. There's a relaxed and informal atmosphere that allows performers, audience and organizers to ease back a bit and just enjoy." Since the early '80s, Blue Skies weekend camping passes have been decided by lottery. Kids and families are a big part of the festival.

The photos on this fan-made page provide a good sense of the Blue Skies Music Festival experience.
Over the years, Blue Skies has evolved in its own, quirky way. With an organizational structure more like a group of friends than a board of directors, and an eye to staying small and manageable rather than big and money-making, Blue Skies has developed its own way of doing things.

The COVID-19 pandemic has forced the festival to go virtual. The Blue Skies 2021 Program is currently being developed. Visit the Blue Skies Music Festival website for lineup and announcements. View the 2020 Blue Skies Virtual Program.
