The Warm Up - From The Canmore Folk Festival

On February 27, 2025, the Canmore Folk Festival brings you The Warm Up, a mid-winter music festival designed to brighten the season. This one-night event takes over downtown Canmore, with more than 20 artists performing across 11 venues, all within walking distance.

With an all-access pass, you can hop from one venue to the next, experiencing a mix of acoustic sets, energetic bands, and intimate performances. There’s also a Warm Up Hub at the Civic Centre, where you can cozy up by the fire pits, sip on hot chocolate, and enjoy DJ music.

Some concerts require a pass, but there are free activities too, so everyone can get involved. Don’t miss this chance to shake off the winter blues with great music and a lively atmosphere! More Info
