ATTN SONGWRITERS: The Dawson City Music Festival Association is accepting applications for our 2020 Songwriter in Residence Program. The program brings a musician to Dawson City for a month-long, mid-winter stay (January 2020), where the artist receives studio and living space. Previous participants have involved themselves deeply with the local community and have found it to be an enriching, once-in-a-lifetime experience.

The Dawson City Music Festival staff and Board of Directors would like to express our sincerest appreciation to everyone who took part in the 2019 Festival; the performers, the tech crews working tirelessly into the night, the several hundred volunteers it takes to bring the Festival to life (both long-timers and first-timers), and of course, you, our beloved audience.

The Dawson City Music Festival (DCMF) is a celebration of art, community, and friendship. We operate on the principle of respect for all attendees, artists, audience members, organizers, participants, vendors and volunteers, as well as the communities within Dawson, the Yukon, and the Tr’ondëk Hwëch’in First Nation, who so generously allow us to gather on this site within their homeland every year.
