Welcome to the 47th Elora Festival!

We’re delighted to welcome you to the 47th Annual Elora Festival!

Whether this is your first visit or a treasured summer tradition, we are so glad you are here. Once again, we bring the best of the world to our beautiful village, offering extraordinary musical experiences that inspire, uplift, and connect us.

This season features an exceptional roster of guest artists. We are thrilled to welcome ensembles such as Pro Coro Canada and Paradora, each bringing distinctive artistry and energy to the Festival. Audiences will also enjoy unforgettable performances by acclaimed artists including Laila Biali and Natalie MacMaster, as well as the genre-defying brilliance of Constantinople. Intimate recitals at St John’s Church, by pianist Charles Richard-Hamelin and harpist Noël Wan will captivate. Together, these artists represent the richness and diversity that define the Elora Festival experience.

Our ensemble-in-residence, The Elora Singers, takes centre stage throughout the Festival with stunning performances in the Gambrel Barn and St. John’s Church. These unique venues, each with their own character and acoustic beauty, create intimate and transformative musical encounters.

The Elora Festival thrives because of community. We are profoundly grateful to our dedicated volunteers, generous donors, loyal audience members, and committed sponsors. Your belief in the power of live music makes this Festival possible. We are equally thankful for the vital support of government, corporate, and individual funders who recognize that the arts are essential to a vibrant and engaged community — helping us make sense of our complex world and drawing us closer together through shared experience.

Thank you for joining us for the 47th Annual Elora Festival.

Your seat awaits.
