JADE MUSIC FEST

Jade Music Fest was established to celebrate Chinese-language music in Canada by preserving languages, fostering generational connections, and building community with first-generation and 1.5+ generation artists for diverse Chinese-speaking communities and beyond.

Located in the beautiful city of Vancouver, British Columbia, Jade Music Fest has, since its launch in 2022, been a platform to celebrate local Chinese-language music artists, showcasing their talent and facilitating exchanges with artists from both domestic and international music scenes.

Our mission is to highlight the richness of diverse voices and expand the conversation around inclusion. Looking ahead, we aim to amplify other underrepresented language groups and communities, including IBPOC artists, creating spaces where all voices are heard and valued.

JMF offers audiences an opportunity to experience the vibrancy of Chinese-language music from Canada through a dynamic mix of performances, workshops, and discussions featuring emerging and established artists, as well as music professionals from across the globe. By fostering connections between international and Canadian talent, we strive to create a more collaborative and unified Chinese-language music community in Canada.

We also invite the public to engage in meaningful conversations about how music can address critical social issues, such as discrimination, anti-racism, diversity, equity, inclusion, accessibility, and cross-generational relationships. We believe in the transformative power of music to elevate underrepresented voices and inspire impactful change.

Thank you for supporting Jade Music Fest and sharing our vision. Together, we can create a more connected and vibrant world through the universal language of music.
