Fox Harbour is a small community on the Avalon Peninsula of Newfoundland.

As well, the community was called Little Glocester before it became officially named Fox Harbour.

Fox Harbour started as a fishing community in the early 19th century by the three families of Matthew, Martin, and George Spurvey.

It commences with a cemetery mass followed by a garden party on the Sunday previous to the festival week.

During the following week many events are held, including dances for adults and children, and a concert.

On Saturday, there is a softball tournament; all residents and visitors are invited to participate (usually in four teams).

Local residents organize the event; they are called the Fox Harbour Festival Committee.
