Artist Applications 2025
Edmonton StreetFest is a fully curated Canadian Street Performers Festival that strives to bring a diverse artist line-up to audiences that features local, national, and international acts. Please note that we do not have a music stage, and musical acts are generally programmed as buskers.
The Edmonton International Street Performers Festival runs from July 4-13, 2025. Performers must be available for the full 10 days of the Festival.
All artists are offered a guaranteed fee to perform the Festival, and out-of-town artists are provided with a travel stipend, as well as accommodation during the Festival dates. StreetFest hires a number of circle show acts, roving acts, children’s shows, and interactive workshops. Each performance slot is 45 minutes in length. Speakers are provided, however microphones, cables and playback devices must be provided by the artist.
The Edmonton International Street Performers Festival Association also curates artists for the Grande Prairie International Street Performers Festival, and for Red Deer CentreFest. Artists may be considered for these festivals as well, pending availability.
Due to the large number of applications received each year, only selected artists will be contacted. Selected artists will be contacted by the end of November, 2024.
