💛 Every Hillsider has a story.

For over 40 years, Hillside has been shaped by the people who return year after year, the families who grow with us, and the memories created on Guelph Lake Island.

From the Blackman family carrying Hillside through three generations, to the Taylors finding a place that brings them back year after year, to John Leacock helping build the community and spirit that makes Hillside what it is today, these stories remind us that Hillside is more than a weekend of music. It’s the people, moments, and connections that stay with us. 🌿

Now we want to hear YOUR Hillside story!

Share your favourite Hillside memory in the comments below, whether it’s your first festival, a favourite performance, a muddy adventure, a new friendship, or a moment you’ll never forget. ✨

We’ll be sharing some of your Hillside stories soon, so tell us what makes Hillside special to you.

See you on the island 💚

Some call it the Hillside spirit. We call it community 💚

The friendships, the kindness, the moments that stay with you long after the weekend ends. That’s what keeps us coming back year after year 🌿✨

"Funky grooves, electric energy, and Métis Disco sounds are coming to Guelph Lake Island 🌿✨

Electric Religious brings together pop, rock, and funk to create a sound that moves between genres while celebrating culture, rhythm, and connection.

Inspired by the words of Jimi Hendrix, “When I get up on stage, that’s my whole life. That’s my religion”, Electric Religious channels that passion into a live performance filled with energy and unforgettable moments.

Experience the sounds of Electric Religious at Hillside Festival 2026 and discover your next favourite artist on the island! 💛

"“It’s so much more than a festival” 💛🌿

From the moment you step onto Guelph Lake Island and hear your first “Happy Hillside,” you feel it.

It’s the music, the people, the volunteers, the artists, the moments of discovery, and the community that comes together to create something truly special.

Hillside is a place to explore, connect, discover something new, and find what brings you joy. ✨

Why do you keep coming back to Hillside year after year? 💚
