about
For 41 years, this Walkerton event, has proudly supported musical arts and education by providing students the opportunity to perform and share their music while competing against other musicians who register to be adjudicated in the same field. Each year we see bands, choirs, dance groups, pianists, vocalists, and instrumentalists perform and share their passion for music. The 2-week festival is wrapped up with a Highlights concert where exceptional performances are showcased, and scholarships are presented to eligible students.
