the Warm Up 2025 Festival Pass

One night. 20+ artists. 10 venues—all within a snowball's throw in downtown Canmore.

Shake off the frost at The Warm Up, presented by the Canmore Folk Music Festival in partnership with the Town of Canmore and Howl.

With your all-access pass, wander from stage to stage—an acoustic set here, an electric jam session there. You’ll find hidden gems, connect with local talent, and revel in the joy of live music in the coziest season. Not to mention, every step supports Canmore’s vibrant arts scene and local businesses.

Additionally, come out to the Warm Up Hub at the Civic Centre for a cozy evening of culture and community (as you pick up your Warm Up wristband)! Warm up by the fire pits, enjoy hot chocolate, check out local vendors, vibe to live DJ tunes, play traditional Indigenous games, and hear from Stoney Nakoda knowledge holders. Plus, share your thoughts on the future of Downtown Canmore.
