Music Mountain was founded and developed by the Swallow family of Thorburn, Pictou County in northern Nova Scotia in 2013 and with an untold investment in time, sweat equity and money they have developed a fabulous open air concert and festival facility just east of New Glasgow. Now in it’s third year Music Mountain has proven itself to be a hit with performers and music fans and as well with campers and families. Although not a “mountain” in the literal sense, the venue does sit high atop the surrounding country side and offers stunning views and vistas of the areas rolling hills and tree lined distant horizons. By day, one feels like they can almost touch the clouds, and by night, almost kiss the stars.

The park is situated on 80 acres and with approximately 15 acres currently utilized, there is plenty of space for R.V.’s, campers, tenting, parking and future development. There are great on site rest room facilities which are very popular with the ladies, as well as access to water for drinking. At present, there are no serviced lots available but there will be in the near future. Seasoned fire wood is available for a modest fee should you want the ambiance of a glowing fire at your festival site. There are on site food concessions for attendees convenience and also a merchandise area were folks can get their Music Mountain gear and pick up CD’s by some of our performers, and, maybe even have them autographed by the artist.

For the bands and fans, Music Mountain boasts an incredible 50 foot wide stage that is also 8 feet high, so you never have to worry about not being able to see all the great acts that grace it or miss out on any of the action and, if you wish, you can shake it all night long on the dance floor located right in front of the stage !!! The stage is also outfitted with an in house l.e.d. light show, full back line, drum riser and superb sound system complete with technicians.

Music Mountain Festival Park is a labour of love for the partners and team members who operate it and near future expansions include a playground area for the little ones and a volleyball area for young adults. Shower facilities are also in the works as well as those serviced lots for R.V.’s.

In 2014, Music Mountain presented many award winning East Coast artists and will be including many more in this years exciting, multi – festival line ups. So come join us in 2015, and see some old friends and make some new ones…by sun soaked day or by camp fire lit night…while enjoying tremendous entertainment and all that Music Mountain has to offer.

See you on the “MOUNTAIN” !!!
