BREAKING: Rankin MacInnis and the Broken Reeds to Headline 69th Annual Broad Cove Scottish Concert

The Broad Cove Scottish Concert is excited to announce Rankin MacInnis and the Broken Reeds as the headlining act for its 69th annual event.

Music Nova Scotia's Entertainer of the Year comes with a big band and a big sound. Known for their eclectic, high-energy shows, Rankin and the Broken Reeds bring together the region’s top musical talent for a live-music experience unlike anything you’ve seen before -- one that feels like it spans time and genres, from traditional folk to future pop, fueled by a lot of groove and finished with a bit of grit. Together, the band has built an award-winning music festival (Blueberry Jam), a first-of-its-kind concert series (Rankin’s Winter Warmers), and a community of creative collaborators who are up for anything -- and fans who can’t wait to see what’s next.

Join us for the 2025 Broad Cove Scottish Concert on July 27 for what promises to be another exciting afternoon featuring the finest musical acts from Cape Breton Island and beyond. We hope to see you this summer!

Performing artists include: Howie MacDonald, Rachel Davis & Darren McMullen, Beech Hill, and many more of your favourite Cape Breton musicians.
