Westben

Read Profile

Westben is where music and nature spring to life! Nestled amongst the hills of Northumberland County, 2 hours east of Toronto, 40 minutes from Peterborough and Cobourg near Campbellford, Westben presents concerts and outdoor experiences in and around its three venues. The custom-built, timber-frame barn seats 400 with doors that roll open onto a lush meadow. Willow Hill amphitheatre offers the outdoor festival experience, and the cosy campfire venue offers performers and audiences a chance to share songs and stories with smores and a sunset. Imagine sunshine and smiles while listening to everything from Bach to Broadway, jazz, folk, pop, comedy including music by our neighbours from Alderville First Nation and the Performer-Composer Residency.

Westben is celebrating its 25th Season of Concerts opening June 2024, featuring over 70 artists in 26 concerts, plus a fully-staged musical by Brian Finley and Ken Tizzard called the Selfish Giant. But Westben is more than just great performances; it is a true music in nature experience. Gourmet picnics on the meadow, Dare to Pair dining experiences, guided nature walks with live music on a neighbouring Nature Reserve and a chance to relax by the pond, all make Westben the place to be.
