About Harvest festival

Crowd dancing by night by statues

Harvest Festival is a four-day celebration of electronic music, art, and community, produced by alienInFlux Sound System & Event Productions each September on the beautiful grounds of Midlothian Castle, home to the famous “Screaming Heads” near Burk’s Falls, Ontario, Canada. Created by artist and sculptor Peter Camani, the property features over 100 towering concrete sculptures scattered across 300 acres of rolling hills, forests, ponds, and open skies.

Held two weekends after Labour Day, Harvest blends the intimacy of a close gathering with the energy of a high-production music festival.

Attendees experience:

Music: House, techno, bass music & ambient DJs on multiple stages.
Performances: Circus acts and other vibrant creative expressions.
Community: Fostering kindness, self-expression, and creativity.
Atmosphere: Set against the backdrop of unique sculptures, geodesic music tents, rolling hills, waters, and forests

As the season shifts toward the fall equinox, nights under the stars with lights, lasers, and art installations flow into sunny afternoon dance floors and fireside gatherings. For some, Harvest is a once-in-a-lifetime trip; for others, it’s a yearly ritual they plan their calendar around.

In 2024, we celebrated the 25th anniversary of the festival.

Happy Harvest!
