3 awesome days of music!
The Hamilton World Music Festival 2017 brings high caliber, professional quality world music artists to the Hamilton stage, including local, Canadian and international artists on tour. We know that music and the arts are meeting points that cross all cultures – just as contemporary world music itself often crosses genres and cultures. By taking a multidimensional approach and by choosing artists at the local, national and international levels, we hope to foster connections between our audiences and community and the rest of the world as well as recognize the diverse cultural landscape of Canada and Hamilton itself.
Admission is Free!
Parking at the festival is $5 or PWYC. All proceeds support Festival programming
