Welcome! to the Airdrie Rotary Festival of Performing Arts website. Our Festival serves musicians and performers in the Rockyview County in the following disciplines: Piano, Vocal, Musical Theatre, Choral, Band, Strings and Speech Arts. Our goal is to help participants learn through performing and receiving feedback in a non-competitive environment. [more about the Festival]
We continue to be supported by the Rotary Club as well as corporate and private sponsors from the community. We appreciate the generous support from everyone who has contributed. If you wish contribute to our Festival, we always welcome donations. Please see sponsorships for more details.
Our yearly Benefit Concert provides provincial candidates an essential performance opportunity before going to Provincials (Alberta Music Festival Association). Those who have participated at Provincials have expressed appreciation for the experience to attend and witness the calibre of performances at the provincial level.
Our Festival Board works hard to organize the festival each year. We appreciate all their efforts and also those who volunteer to help make this event happen. If you would like to volunteer and be a part of this growing Festival, please contact Bob Rodgers arfpavolunteer@gmail.com
PLEASE NOTE:
At the Fall 2018 AMFA AGM, the AMFA and its member festivals voted to withdraw our membership from the Federation of Canadian Music Festivals (FCMF). View the letter of explanation from AMFA.
