Cavendish Farms Celebrates Another Memorable Season Opening at the Charlottetown Festival
July 22, 2026
Cavendish Farms is proud to be the returning Title Sponsor of the Charlottetown Festival, celebrating two unforgettable opening shows filled with community, talent, and East Coast pride.
The season kicked off with the return of the heartwarming story of Anne of Green Gables. The Canadian classic follows a red-haired orphan named Anne Shirley and her captivating imagination as she navigates life in Prince Edward Island.
New to the stage this year is Come From Away. Based on a true story of a small town in Newfoundland that welcomed the world on September 11, 2001. Filled with East Coast hospitality and spirit, it celebrates the trust, gratitude, and friendships that emerged through unprecedented circumstances.
Adding to the opening shows, the Cavendish Farms Fry Wagon was on-site, serving up Canada’s favourite fries in addition to sponsored activations that included an immersive 360 photobooth and signature fry bar.
Since 1965, the Charlottetown Festival has been Atlantic Canada’s largest theatre festival, dedicated to creating new Canadian works and celebrating the country’s vibrant musical theatre scene. We’re honoured to support this legacy and to be part of a community that values storytelling, creativity, and shared experiences.
Congratulations to the dedicated cast and crew for bringing these stories to life!
