Following the resounding success of our inaugural festival, the North Hatley Jazz Festival is back for its second edition, August 6–9, 2026 — and this year, we’re growing. Canton de Hatley is joining the celebration, bringing the music and excitement beyond the village with events both before and during the festival. From intimate warm-up performances to outdoor gatherings across both communities, there’s never been a better time to explore the shores of Lake Massawippi to the rhythm of jazz. Whether you join us for a day or stay for the entire weekend, an unforgettable experience is waiting for you in the heart of the Eastern Townships!
