Rock the Fiddle Festival

Mid-August, 3 days, annual · Port of Sydney Waterfront · Sydney

Cape Breton's biggest summer music party — Celtic, rock & folk on the Sydney waterfront.

Held in mid-August on the scenic Port of Sydney waterfront, Rock the Fiddle is billed as Cape Breton's largest summer music festival, featuring top-tier performers across two stages blending Celtic, rock, and folk styles over three days and nights. Past lineups have included acts like Jimmy Rankin, Matt Minglewood, and The Privateers, with weekend passes and VIP options available. Its waterfront location makes it an ideal post-round evening destination for golfers based in the Sydney area, near Lingan Golf Club and The Lakes Resort.
