About

Blueberry Jam is an award-winning festival that started in 2019 as an Outdoor Concert at Big Belle Farm, a 170-year-old heritage farm owned by Paul and Adele Meagher on Mabou Ridge, Inverness County. The event, formed through a collaboration between Big Belle Farm and local-born musician, Rankin MacInnis, is a way to celebrate and promote both the wild blueberry industry of Cape Breton and the incredible music of the area. Now, the outdoor concert has expanded into an annual full weekend of music in beautiful, late August. For more information including about registering for camping, please visit www.blueberryjam.ca.
