ROCK THE BOAT MUSICFEST
When: August 4th, 2018 Where: Tyne Valley, PE, Canada
Why: Come for the oysters and stay for the music, plus see the coastal experiences that PEI has to offer. Rock the Boat Musicfest is a signature event for the 56-year old Tyne Valley Oyster Festival and is a one-day family-friendly music event that is now into its sixth year and it’s a full deck of new and old faces in this year’s line up that offers something for everyone’s musical tastes. Speaking of tastes, the Rock the Boat Musicfestival is a signature event along with the Canadian Oyster Shucking Cham- pionship, held on Friday, August 2nd. The festival is all about community involvement, oyster shucking and amazing music all wrapped into one festival that is truly unique and like no other in Canada or South of the border which brings thousands and thousands of people to Tyne Valley each year. This event is truly a not for profit festival as all the profits from the festival go right back into the community making it a truly feel good experience for all who attended and the reason why this event has made our list for the third consecutive year.
Ticket Prices: $50.00 CAD - $130.00 CAD

Our answer is the same as it has been every year - go and find out for yourself, you will not be disappointed. Each August long-weekend for the past 23 years The Riverfront Jubilee in New Glasgow, NS has showcased some of the best talent in the Canadian Music Industry. Making our Top 10 is not just about the talent: it is about the venue, the area hospitali- ty and the experience. If you have not been to the JUBE, you better put it on your bucket list for this summer: as we said before, you will not be disap- pointed. Pictou County is known for its historic downtown areas with boardwalks, great shops, farmers markets, restaurants, pubs and amazing beaches. Nestled on the edge of the East River is Glasgow Square, an indoor/outdoor venue, which was built
