Hi-Light Festival is Edmonton’s community-driven, DIY indie music celebration. Founded to spotlight local acts across multiple venues, the festival operates as a 100% self-funded project that brings together a diverse mix of indie rock, folk, electronic, and experimental sounds. The 2025 edition runs April 9–13, across Blakbar, The Dive Bar, The Aviary, and The Buckingham, featuring 31 bands. The 2026 edition continues the same four-venue format, April 8–12, with six shows over five days and 31 bands. In addition to the main festival, Hi-Light plans a dedicated fundraiser show on October 10, 2025 at The Aviary.
