About us:

The Prince Edward Island Kiwanis Music Festival Association is a non-profit organization that represents four local festivals (Kings County, Queens County, East Prince and West Prince) as well as our Provincial Finals.

Our purpose is to promote and encourage growth in music through local festivals in competitive and non-competitive classes. PEI music students and amateur musicians from all backgrounds, and at all levels (from beginner to advanced) are invited to take part. 

The majority of competitors take part in just their local festival, but can potentially progress through 3 levels of competition (local, provincial, and then national) if they wish, depending on the requirements of each level and recommendation of our adjudicators.
