Official Showcase Applications are open now for the 2025 Folk Alliance International Conference in Montréal, Québec, Canada (February 19 – 23, 2025). Official Showcases are an excellent way for tour-ready artists to perform their music in front of festival bookers, agents, venues, record labels, DJs, and more.
Folk Alliance is the world’s largest gathering of the folk music industry and community (crossing a diverse array of genres including Appalachian, Americana, Blues, Bluegrass, Celtic, Cajun, Global Roots, Hip-Hop, Old-Time, Singer-Songwriter, Spoken Word, Traditional, Zydeco, and various fusions).
Selected through a competitive jury process, Official Showcase artists often book national or international tours, meet professionals to join their teams, and catch the interest of media based on these performances.
Applications close June 28, 2024 at 11:59 pm CT (note that’s 05:59 am the following day in the UK)
