About The Festival

Welcome to The Electric Highway

The Electric Highway is an annual music and arts festival in Calgary.  The festival is a celebration featuring Stoner Rock, Desert Rock, Psychedelic, Fuzzy Hardcore, Surf Rock, Punk,Heavy Blues, Doom & Sludge Metal bands from Canada, the US and around the world. Besides all the rad music, festival attendees will have the opportunity to view and purchase the work of select local artists, artisans, and craftsmen at The Electric Highway Expo.

2020 was to be the festival’s fourth year and first under the name The Electric Highway. Unfortunately due to the pandemic, the 2020 edition of the Festival did not occur.  The Electric Highway took place in Calgary in 2023 at Dickens in downtown Calgary from March 23 – 25. And it was a resounding success!

The Electric Highway returns to Dickens on April 4, 5 and 6, 2024 with Canadian Juno Award winning Canadian band ANCIIENTS headlining the whole festival. Single day tickets, 2-day passes and full festival passes are on sale now in the Festival store.
