CMAOntario Festival & Awards Weekend

-

In today's competitive marketplace, having a strong infrastructure and support system is crucial for Ontario country artists to thrive, especially given the overwhelming dominance of U.S. artists in the country music genre. By providing these opportunities, the CMAOntario is helping artists improve their skills, gain exposure, and compete at a higher level.

In addition to advancing arts & culture in Ontario, we are committed to supporting local charitable initiatives. Through our events, we strive to not only entertain, but also, to make a positive impact on the lives of those in need.

Our team works with local stakeholders to adapt our strategies, based on the evolving needs of each community.

This ensures we effectively allocate our resources and efforts, providing a sustainable and transformative impact and aligning with the community's values and culture.

A portion of the proceeds from each event is donated to a local charity that alleviates the effects of living in poverty and disadvantage, such as food banks, community kitchens and community living organizations. Additionally, the CMAOntario contributes annually to the Unison Benevolent Fund.

We believe that music has the power to bring people together, inspire creativity, and foster a sense of belonging. By organizing affordable live music events, we aim to make these experiences accessible to all, regardless of their age or financial situation. We create a space where everyone feels welcome and can enjoy the magic of live music and CMAOntario maximizes its platform to make a difference.

We invite all to join us in our aim to support Ontario country music creators, build vibrant communities, and make a positive impact on the lives of individuals. Together, we create opportunities for everyone to live a better life in a more inclusive and thriving community where music and charitable efforts go hand in hand.
