Celebrating its twenty third year, The Medicine Hat JazzFest is a widely recognized world-class festival that has taken its place alongside the other great jazz festivals in Western Canada.

You will find an eclectic mix of venues, from the signature concert at the Downtown Bus Terminal Parkade to the intimate and quaint atmosphere of the late night clubs.

There is both free and ticketed events as well as a number of educational events including workshops, jams, a youth stage featuring the up and coming jazz musicians from Medicine Hat and a concert for elementary school children.

Just some of the past performers include Arturo Sandoval, Paquito diRivera, Bobby Hutcherson, Lee Konitz, Monty Alexander, Olver Jones, Downchild Blues Band, Powder Blues, Maraca, Ivana Santilli, and Paulo Ramos.

It’s the moment you walk down the forested path and see Snowberry Stage. It’s dancing with your toes in the soft grass. It’s kicking back on your tarp with your hat tipped over your eyes, listening to the music while the sun warms your cheeks. It’s running into old friends and making new ones. It’s discussing the music, in-depth and openly. It’s taking the time to enjoy each other’s company and appreciate the things that are truly important in life.

The Winnipeg Folk Fest is the culmination of everything great about the local folk community. For four days every July, thousands gather at Bird’s Hill Park to celebrate and enjoy exceptional music with  friends and family. You’re home at the Winnipeg Folk Fest. There is a little something for everyone with a range of roots, world music, indie-rock, electronic, country, Celtic and Americana genres. Many of the 75+ artists in the lineup are playing in Manitoba for the very first time!
