Westben Concerts at The Barn
June 9 to August 5
Campbellford, ON
Experience music in a natural setting at Westben. Now in its 19th season, Westben is where the best of music and nature spring to life! Nestled amongst the peaceful hills of Northumberland County two hours east of Toronto, near Campbellford, Westben's primary performance venue is a custom-built, timber-frame barn. The Barn seats 400 and combines state-of-the-art acoustics with a rustic yet sophisticated atmosphere. On sunny days from June to August massive walls and doors roll away allowing music to waft over the surrounding meadow. Westben’s 19th season features classical, broadway, jazz, folk and fiddle music, with Tafelmusik Baroque Orchestra, Sarah Harmer, Colin Mochrie, Michael Kaeshammer, Vancouver Chamber Choir, Danel String Quartet, Wallis Giunta, Alexander Dobson and more.
