Under the Spire
Music Festival

Step Inside the Music!

ABOUT US

Presented by the Confederation Bridge, Under the Spire Music Festival (USMF) offers a summer long series of concerts in a magnificent heritage church located in idyllic rural Prince Edward Island. This former church was built for music by famed PEI architect William Critchlow Harris, who took his inspiration from the inside of a violin. Today the exceptional acoustics in this French- Gothic building have gained an international reputation, making it a favourite for both performers and their fans alike.

Now entering its 27th season in 2022, this summer-long festival attracts thousands of music lovers annually to the acoustically perfect Historic St. Mary’s. This summer, step inside the music and join us under the stunning 200-year-old vaulted, wooden ceiling for some of the best in classical, traditional, folk, jazz and world music!
