Programs · 2026 season
Our events
Four ways we gather through the year — a premier festival, a touring feast, community workshops, and a knowledge-exchange of Indigenous leaders. Always Indigenous-led. Always free.

The Festival
A free outdoor celebration on the land
Three days of contemporary Indigenous music, art, and culture — our biggest gathering of the year.
Our premier festival brings artists and audiences together for a multi-day, open-air celebration hosted in partnership with a host Nation — live performances across genres, outdoor Indigenous art exhibitions, food, and community, streamed live for those who can't be there in person.

Movable Feast
A festival that moves with the people
Free music and cultural gatherings brought directly into Indigenous communities across B.C.
Each stop is unique — a blend of live music, local culture, food, and storytelling, co-created with the host Nation so every gathering is personal to its community. Always free, always Indigenous-led.

The Melawmen Space
Nurturing collective learning & connection
Creative and cultural workshops held in host communities before each Movable Feast.
The Melawmen Space brings together artists, Elders, and community members to share teachings, stories, practices, and ceremony — a quieter gathering that prepares the ground before the music begins.

The Confluence
Inspiring bold pathways forward
A gathering of Indigenous artists, activators, and cultural leaders.
The Confluence is a knowledge-exchange bringing together Indigenous innovators and activators. Through storytelling, they reveal how Indigenous worldviews inspire their work — in culture and community — keeping us connected beyond the summer festival season.
