Jade Music Fest

Thank you for your interest in volunteering with 2022 Jade Music Fest.

Jade Music Fest is a global music industry conference being held in the beautiful city of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. JMF’s inaugural year (2022) goal is to present a majority of Chinese language artists from Canada, in the hopes of giving the Chinese language speaking Canadians the representation and equal opportunities in the Canadian and international music industry they very much deserve.

We are looking for passionate and like-minded individuals that are interested in music, culture, and the arts to join us. This festival is not only an excellent opportunity to build your resume and gain hands-on experience but also to learn more about the Chinese language music world, right here in Vancouver.

We look forward to working with you!
