An Indigenous music festival is happening this November in Toronto, and it’s going to have top talent as well as an accompanying vendor market.

Tkaronto Music Festival will be headlined by Blue Moon Marquee, The Halluci Nation and Tanya Tagaq. Other performers at the festival are Sebastian Gaskin, Kaeley Jade, MR. SAUGA, Stun, Evan Redsky and Kristi Lane Sinclair.

Blue Moon Marquee blends Indigenous soul with country, jazz and blues, Halluci Nation was formerly known as A Tribe Called Red and makes electronic music fused with Indigenous chants and dance vibes, and Tanya Tagaq defies genre with her avant garde improvisational singing.

There will be different hosts for each night: Kai Potts, Natasha Fisher and the Deadly Aunties. The event is organized by TKMF Productions, a team with 60 years of experience in events behind them.

Three-day passes are available online for $75 for the music festival, but the vendor marketplace is totally free.
