Artist applications are now open for Doylefest 2026!!!
Tag a band you’d like to see there this year, and let’s get rolling!! 🚐

For 12 years now, (wow, 12 YEARS!?) artists have built Doylefest into what it is today, a weekend of music, community, and the cozy magic that happens when a bunch of good people decide to build something cool together.

Doylefest is a celebration for the Community Arts Mentorship Program, and the artists who perform generously donate their time to help support arts programming in northern, remote, and rural communities.
It’s pretty dang special.

🎨Side note cool fact! All of this year’s graphics, posters, and lil' Doylefest scenes were hand-drawn (digitally) by local Saskatoon Doylefest supporter Jille Magnus . We’re pretty excited about this tiny illustrated Doylefest world… keep your eyes open for lots more scenes and characters to be added to the mix!

oops...

Hey kiddos.. our mistake! Wild Sky Adventure Learning is going to be at the festival on SATURDAY only. But we will still have a children's area on Sunday, it just won't be run by the one and only Bree!

If it goes well on Saturday, let your parents and us know!! Maybe next year Bree can come hang out for both days 😽
