Sound of Music Festival

The Sound of Music Festival is an annual music festival traditionally held in Burlington, Ontario, Canada. Founded in 1980, it is held in mid-June and usually falls on the Father's Day weekend. The festival is organized by the nonprofit organization Burlington's Sound of Music Festival Inc.

The festival has free admission and has previously been held along the city's waterfront Spencer Smith Park and the downtown core. It bills itself as "Canada's Largest Free Music Festival," and utilizes several stages throughout the waterfront and downtown area.

As of 2025, the festival will no longer be held at Spencer Smith Park in Burlington, after 45 years of residency. The change was announced due to financial constraints and the end of its sponsorship by city council.
