About Us


Ontario’s “little-big” music and arts festival by the river is one of Canada's premier festivals located in Centre Wellington, offering top tier headliners, exciting up-and-comers, acts of all genres, local artisans, food trucks and craft brews, all within a majestically natural setting along the banks of the famed Grand River in Elora — Ontario’s most beautiful village.


Riverfest Elora, which started as a backyard festival in 2009 with an attendance of around 700 people, has grown exponentially in over the years to see crowds of more than 5,000 a day over 3 days in late August.  Growing from the success of the past, which has included performances by City and Colour, The Glorious Sons, The Flaming Lips, City and Colour, MGMT, Carly Rae Jepsen, Arkells, July Talk, Blue Rodeo, Chromeo, The Sheepdogs, Gogol Bordello, Walk Off The Earth, Donovan Woods, Bahamas and many more.


Riverfest Elora credits its success in making it through the pandemic and beyond due to the ongoing contributions from its artistic partnerships, and the unwavering support of Elora and Centre Wellington's small but mighty community.
