Starbelly Kids | Starbelly Jam Music Festival

To say Starbelly Jam is family-friendly doesn’t quite cut it—we are family-centered. From the very beginning, this festival was created with families in mind. Unlike some festivals where kids feel like an afterthought, here they are at the heart of the experience.

Imagine a festival site that’s safe, manageable in size, and filled with hundreds of other kids to play with. Add in a world-class natural playground right on the grounds, and a full schedule of amazing children’s entertainment, and you’ve got a weekend that your whole crew will love.

Maybe you used to love going to summer music festivals when life was a bit more carefree—but now, with kids in tow, you’re wondering if that kind of magic is still possible. Starbelly Jam is your answer. Our just-right-sized festival is perfectly set up to bring joy to both grown-ups and kids alike.

Whether you’re coming with a crew of families or arriving as a solo parent and child, your kids will quickly find friends and fun. They might meet over the Milky Way water table, take endless spins on the legendary merry-go-round, dive into crafts at our well-stocked creation station, get lost in a story at the storytelling tent, or laugh along at a magic show.

At Starbelly, your children are more than welcome—they’re celebrated.

At Starbelly Jam, families aren’t just welcome—they’re at the heart of the whole experience. Whether you’re arriving with toddlers, teens, or the whole extended crew, this is a festival designed for everyone to enjoy together.

Start your day with a visit to Crawford Bay Beach, just a short walk from the festival grounds, and then dive into a weekend full of music, creativity, and community connection.

Kids are encouraged to enjoy all the music at the festival—not just special children’s sets. From toe-tapping tunes to dreamy grooves, there’s something for every age to dance to, discover, and be inspired by.

There will also be family-focused performances and activities in our Workshop Tent, plus storytelling inside a magical giant inflatable salmon. Around the grounds, you’ll find plenty of opportunities for creative play, including painting, bubbles, crafts, and costume-making.

The Enchanted Playgarden is a dynamic outdoor play space where kids can dig in the sand and water zone, spin on the merry-go-round, scramble up hills, zoom down slides, and more. It’s a wonderland of activity—but please remember:
this is not a daycare. Children must be supervised by their grownups at all times. We love to see parents and caregivers sharing the fun—cheering from the sidelines, playing alongside, and soaking it all in.

Need a moment to recharge? The Milky Way Nursing & Chillout Station offers a shady, quiet space for feeding, resting, or regrouping with your little ones.

Older kids and teens will find their own rhythm here, too—crafting trinkets, joining in pickup soccer games, or just exploring freely and safely in a welcoming environment.

However your family is shaped, Starbelly has something for each of you. And when it’s time to pack up and head home, you’ll understand why so many families return to this little slice of magic, year after year.

Starbelly Jam: where music meets imagination, and families make memories together.
