Get ready for RIBFEST! August 15th to 17th 2025.

 

Held at Victoria Park, Cobourg, the 16th annual Northumberland Ribfest & Music Festival will be a blast! Each year, the number of visitors gets bigger, the food gets better and the Rotary Club of Cobourg is able to do more in the community and abroad because of your support. Bring your lawn chair or blanket and claim your spot in front of the bandshell. There’s free entertainment every afternoon!

This event is a fundraiser to help the Rotary Club of Cobourg support worthy causes at home and abroad.
A few of the contributions we have made in the past include:
Support of Habitat for Humanity Northumberland, Ed’s House , Ongoing Development of Cobourg Heritage Harbour, Literacy Projects at Home and Abroad,
Clean Water Projects, Polio Eradication and more!

Our August Ribfest weekend is one of three major fundraising activities the Club undertakes.
Every Canada Day Weekend we host our Rotary Arts & Crafts Festival as part of the Cobourg Waterfront Festival.
