Arts on the Fly is Horsefly, BC's premier music, dance and arts festival!
Located in beautiful Cariboo country, you'll find our small community putting on one of the best summer festivals in British Columbia. We bring together performers from locally and around the world – from country to reggae, Irish to bluesy rock'n roll – and celebrate a weekend of music, arts and dancing.
