A Message from the Ambleside Music Festival Team:
This is one of the hardest messages for us to share. Our team has poured so much heart into Ambleside Music Festival, and we were truly hoping to return to Ambleside Park this August. Unfortunately, the festival will not be taking place this summer.
GSL Group, which proudly funded Ambleside Music Festival and other music events at Ambleside Park since its inception in 2009, has made the difficult decision not to proceed with a festival in the summer of 2025. With economic uncertainties creating an unstable environment in early 2025, the decision was made to take a pause.
To our incredible fans, vendors, sponsors, and partners—thank you very, very much. You've helped us create unforgettable memories with artists like Ed Sheeran, Sarah McLachlan, Neil Young, Kenny Chesney, and many more.
Planning is underway for a return so we’re not saying “goodbye”, but rather “see you later”. Until then, keep the spirit of Ambleside alive. We look forward to continuing this festival’s legacy on the North Shore in the years to come.
With love,
The Ambleside Music Festival Team
