FIVE ACRE SHAKER MUSIC FESTIVAL

Join us this August 11 & 12 at the Port Alberni Fall Fair Grounds for the 2023 edition of the Five Acre Shaker. This year marks the 10th anniversary since the inception of The Shaker in 2014!

This marks the first year that the event will be held at the Fall Fair Grounds and we’re so excited to be able to bring back the Shaker at a central location for Port Albernians of all ages to enjoy. Please check out our Get Involved Page, which has applications for artists, volunteers, food trucks, media, and vendors.

Friday at the Five Acre Shaker kicks-off with an evening of Funk, Rock and and Alt-Soul featuring Vancouver’s powerful ensemble Five Alarm Funk, fan-favourite Caleb Hart, Squamish Valley Surf-Rock sensations Surf Hat and this year’s Battle of the Bands winner Alex Fraser.

Saturday at the Five Acre Shaker concert-goers will be treated to an incredible night of Rock, Country and Blues headlined by Canadian Country Music Award winner Eric Ethridge, and featuring one of Country Music’s rising stars Melissa Livingstone as well as Seattle-based Country-Blues outfit Brian James Was Here, and emerging Blues Rock artist Cat Madden.
