Better late than never... here's your Summer 2026 lineup at the Grand Narrows Waterfront! 🎉

We've been a little busy getting the season underway but we are SO excited to share what we have planned. Sunday Funday live music every week at the Wheelhouse Stage, Watercolour Wednesdays (sorry, sold out), the 16th Annual Car Show and we're also excited to be hosting Noises in the Narrows on August 22, brought to you by Mickeepers Entertainment

And be sure to follow us for any updates throughout the season.

Keep us part of your whole summer.

Free live music + waterfront vibes = Granville Green!

Sunday evenings from July 5 – August 9 it's one of summer’s best traditions. Bring a chair, bring friends, and enjoy amazing live performances, all for FREE!

Join us for a guided Land & Culture Walk at Baile nan Gàidheal | Highland Village. This special folklife experience offers an opportunity to explore the histories, traditions, and connections to the land shared by the Mi'kmaq (L'nu) and Gaels of Nova Scotia.

Along the way, participants will learn about traditional knowledge of local plants, medicines, and the enduring relationships between people and the natural world that have shaped Mi'kmaw and Gaelic life for generations. Following the walk, guests are invited to enjoy tea and freshly prepared bonnach while continuing the conversation.

Reservations preferred. The costs are $40 per adult or $20 per student.

As you experience this special place, a stillness washes over. The pure beauty of the trail, winding in harmony with the shores of the Bras d’Or Lake, is an exceptional backdrop to this authentic and powerful Indigenous cultural experience. Eskasoni Cultural Journeys provides an essential voice for Mi’kmaw heritage.

ABOUT THE PLAY
Glen and Sandy have celebrated every wedding anniversary by coming to the same rustic cottage for a romantic getaway. This weekend marks a major milestone: 50 years of wedded bliss. Well, mostly bliss.... A week ago, Sandy mysteriously cancelled their big anniversary party and kicked Glen to the curb. In desperation, he’s staging an intervention. Join these lovebirds as they hilariously recount the good, the bad, and the ugly of spending half a century together. From one of Canada’s most successful playwrights, The Golden Anniversaries is a comedy about marriage, memory, and a long-term love for the ages.
Matinee's start at 2:30 and evening shows start at 7:30

August 9th is coming fast!🚗✨

The 16th Annual Show N' Shine Car Show in Grand Narrows is on its way and we can't wait!

Behind every great event are the people who make it happen. We're holding a planning meeting this Sunday, July 26 at 9am at the Wheelhouse Cafe to finalize volunteers, assign roles and nail down the layout for the big day.

If you or anyone you know is interested in volunteering, come join us Sunday morning. All are welcome! 🙌
