Avonlea Village of Anne of Green Gables

Avonlea Village located in Cavendish is one of my favorite attractions on Prince Edward Island. Here you can meet Anne of Green Gables the character of Prince Edward Island’s worldwide famous author Lucy Maud Montgomery. Anne, Diana Barry Gilbert, Josie Pye, Mathew and Marilla Cuthbert, Rachel Lynde they and more of their friends will together with you (if you wish) play games between the live performance of stories from the book. To be here is truly to be traveling back in time no matter your age you will have fun.

Live theater at the Stage.

Take a look in the barn to see the animals and take a ride with the horse carriage.

Some of my favorite musicians working here in Avonlea and if you miss their performances you have missed one of the best music experience on PEI. So make sure you check the schedule when they play. They like everyone in Avonlea Village are friendly and will be happy to both talk with you and sign the CD’s with their music that I highly recommend you to buy as it’s the perfect memory to bring home.

  • Brendan Peters - PEI's Best Spoons Player
  • Leon Gallant - Renowned Island Singer/Songwriter
  • RĂ©mi Arsenault - Recipient of the Prince Edward Island Musician of the Year Award
  • Mike Pendergast - PEI's most popular children's entertainer

Leon Gallant singing a song can it be down by the bay? One of my favorite songs. Usually you can request a song and if Mike Pendergast is there I highly recommend you to ask for three little sailors.

Everyone is invited to the square dance and if you can’t dance feel free to clap.

If you want to but souvenirs and gifts you will find that in these stores available on different locations around the Village: Anne of Green Gables Store, Anne of Green Gables Chocolates, Avonlea General Store, Avonlea Artisans' Studio

I and my husband have been regular visitors of Avonlea Village sense 2002. There is something with this place that just keep drawing us back. I would happily move into and live my life in this Village.
