World Music on the Beach is a vibrant two-day Niagara Jazz Festival experience celebrating global music, culture, and community along Niagara’s scenic shoreline.

The event begins with a launch night in downtown St. Catharines on July 4, followed by the main beachside festival at Lakeside Park in Port Dalhousie on July 5.

Featuring 15 local, GTA and international bands, the festival showcases a rich mix of global sounds—from Afrobeat and Latin to reggae and fusion—creating an energetic, dance-filled atmosphere.

Guests can also enjoy a curated selection of food and beverage vendors, artisan markets, and community activations, along with a dedicated kids’ zone that makes the event fun and welcoming for all ages. Set against a backdrop of sun, sand, and waterfront views, it’s a joyful celebration where music and culture come together.
