Wavelength Music Festival + Conference 2026

Presented with Sonic Boom 

In partnership with TO Live

 

Wavelength is delighted to be expanding our annual winter season festivities to include conversation programs and interactive activities over the Spring Equinox weekend!

 

Wavelength Music Festival + Conference 2026 welcomes a prominent roster of artists, venues and community partners. Proudly independent, homegrown and artist-centric, the festival brings a grassroots-oriented approach that reflects the diversity of the Toronto music scene. Explore the west-end creative community through events held at Lula Lounge, the Art Gallery of Ontario, the Baby G, the Garrison, InterAccess, and our home base Wavelength @ St. Anne’s, an arts hub known for immersive and intimate performances in a gorgeous historic church hall.

 

This year we are going global in scope, with emerging Canadian artists spotlighted alongside international guests from Australia, France, Hong Kong, Ireland, Portugal and the United States. In addition to the 30+ live acts, a festival highlight will be the book launch event for the memoir by Melissa Auf der Maur, Canadian-born alternative rock icon (Hole, Smashing Pumpkins), at the AGO.
