Community Initiatives

Everyone has the right to participate in the cultural life of our community, and we strive to mitigate factors that impede access to the festival’s activities and operations. Our community engagement efforts includes Accessibility as part of the festival logistics planning and design, posting a dedicated Accessibility team during the festival, offering deeply discounted or donated Community Tickets to groups that are not otherwise able to afford the festival, offering complimentary tickets to members of the Indigenous community, and executing our Open Arms Initiative which welcomes new immigrants and refugees to the Festival.
