About

SuperFolk Morin-Heights is a non-profit organization that hosts an annual festival and off-season events dedicated to folk music in all its forms. The SuperFolk Festival was originally founded in 2017 by singer-songwriter and producer Ian Kelly.

The core idea is to use music and art as a way to strengthen community bonds. Every year, SuperFolk puts together a warm and inclusive outdoor musical celebration to make the most of the last rays of summer sunshine.

SUPERFOLK Morin-Heights is also a bilingual event that helps bridge the gap between the area’s English- and French-speaking communities.

Deeply rooted in its region, the event also highlights local artisans and businesses, helping to boost the local economy. In just a few years, the festival has become part of the identity of the Lower Laurentians, bringing music back to the heart of a village with a rich musical history.

Sustainable development

Located in a park, the SUPERFOLK Morin-Heights festival is committed to using every possible eco-friendly practice to protect the environment through actions that truly make a difference. The organization has proudly implemented these nature-preserving measures since its very first edition.

We provide reusable deposit cups, compostable dishware and containers, helping raise environmental awareness among attendees. Festivalgoers are also encouraged to bring and refill their own bottles at our water stations — we do not sell bottled water.

Waste sorting stations (garbage, recycling, compost) will be available on-site for everyone’s use.

Official merchandise, such as festival-branded shirts, is made in Canada and produced in an eco-responsible way.
