About

Our Leadership
Founded by musicians. Built by neighbours.
Our founders bring lived experience from stages, studios and community stages across Canada — including Caribbean and reggae roots that shape the warmth and rhythm of everything we do.
Land Acknowledgement
Angus Music Festival gathers on the traditional territory of the Anishinaabeg peoples, within the lands covered by the Williams Treaties, and on the historic lands of the Huron-Wendat and the Haudenosaunee. This land is also home to many Métis, Inuit and First Nations people today. We are grateful to gather, make music and build community here, and we are committed to learning from and standing with Indigenous communities.
This acknowledgement is a living draft. It will continue to be refined through respectful consultation with the appropriate Indigenous communities as we build meaningful, ongoing relationships.
Community Commitment
A year-round promise.
We serve Angus, Essa Township, CFB Borden military members and families, and the wider Simcoe County region. Every program is designed to be welcoming — to new Canadians, francophone residents, Indigenous communities, seniors, youth and everyone in between.
Angus Music Festival is a registered nonprofit organization committed to strengthening community through music, culture, education and inclusive participation.
