Magnetic Hill Concert Site

Magnetic Hill Concert Site is an outdoor music venue near Moncton featuring natural slopes that function as an amphitheater for performances. The grounds use this natural topography to accommodate thousands of spectators across multiple levels.

The site was established in 1984 to host a major religious event when Pope John Paul II celebrated a papal mass there. Following this significant event, the location transformed into a performance venue for international musical artists.

The venue takes its name from the natural landscape feature that defines its geography, shaping how sound travels across the grounds. This connection between the land itself and the performances creates a distinctive experience that differs from typical indoor music halls.

The grounds feature multiple entry points and sit near a major highway, making arrival straightforward. Accommodations and dining options are located just minutes away from the performance area.

The location features a physical anomaly where vehicles appear to roll uphill on a flat section of the road, creating an optical illusion. This peculiar phenomenon adds another layer of interest beyond its role as a concert destination.
