MusicOntario is thrilled to return to Folk Alliance International (FAI) in 2025, where we will be hosting our ninth annual private showcase suite. FAI is the world’s largest gathering of the folk music industry and community, celebrating a diverse range of genres including Blues, Bluegrass, Roots, Celtic, Cajun, Appalachian, Traditional, World, and Singer-Songwriter. The event offers a comprehensive conference, tailored business opportunities, and hundreds of showcase performances.

In collaboration with our supporting partners, MusicOntario will also be organizing additional showcase opportunities at FAI to help Ontario-based artists and companies strengthen their export, touring, and professional strategies. We welcome feedback from anyone working in any tradition or style of folk music.
