About the Producers of Route 960

Route 960 Country Music Festival is produced by the  team  of Elaine & Clint, with deep roots in Atlantic Canadian live music and festival production, with a focus on creating welcoming, community-driven events that people look forward to year after year.

If you enjoyed the festival in Cape Tormentine in 2025, you’ll recognize that the same producers have now moved on to their own independent show—creating Route 960 Country Music Festival in Upper Cape, New Brunswick.

While the name and location have evolved, the spirit remains the same: great country music, a strong sense of community, and a weekend built around bringing people together.

Route 960 represents the next chapter in that journey—built with experience, passion, and a commitment to growing something special for the region.

Many guests from previous Cape Tormentine-area festivals have found a new home at Route 960 Country Music Festival.
