Event Description
This September 11-13th, Cloud 9 Festival invites Eastern Ontario’s (Toronto, Kingston, Ottawa, and Montreal) music + art lovers, outdoor enthusiasts and change makers to gather for a transformative weekend of sound, art, wellness, and community at No.9 Gardens, Canada’s first Centre for Sustainability.
Founded in 2022 in the wake of the pandemic, Cloud 9 was created with a mission to restore spaces for meaningful connection. Since then, it has grown into a year-round creative platform rooted in the belief that music and culture can bring people closer to one another and to the places they inhabit. The annual gathering at No.9 Gardens offers an alternative to the traditional festival experience: part music event, part outdoor retreat, and part creative laboratory.
Set across the 50-acre No.9 Gardens property nestled between Toronto and Montreal, Cloud 9 2026 will feature a carefully curated lineup of electronic artists alongside immersive art installations, sustainability-focused programming, communal experiences, and spaces designed for rest and rejuvenation.
This year's musical program includes Pucker Up! — Kai, Moody.cn.man, and Critter — performing a B2B2B set, with Loukeman headlining the weekend. Programming will take place across No.9's outdoor spaces, supported by a scalable Danley Sound Labs system designed to deliver a high-quality listening experience while maintaining the intimate character of the gathering.
Beyond the music, Cloud 9's programming explores the relationship between creativity, environmental responsibility, and collective wellbeing. Guests can expect opportunities to participate in workshops, wellness programming, communal seed-to-table meals in the gardens, art experiences, and other activities that encourage a slower, more intentional way of experiencing a festival weekend.
