About Us

Our Mission Statement

The Airdrie Rotary Festival of Performing Arts promotes the appreciation of music and speech arts by organizing and operating an annual festival that encourages amateur performers and students to participate and perform in a non-competitive environment, leading toward further personal growth and excellence.

About the 2025 Festival

In our 14th year we will offer the following disciplines: Classical Guitar / Ukulele, Community Choir, Musical Theatre, Piano, School Choir, Speech, Strings and Vocal.

The Festival will run March 17 - 27, 2025 and the Festival Showcase concert will be held on Saturday, March 29, 2025

As always, our festival is a non-competitive environment allowing adjudicators to focus on learning and teaching, and creating a positive environment for all who participate. Outstanding performances are recognized through scholarships and Provincial recommendations.  We look forward to seeing and hearing many amazing performances in 2025.
