About the event
The Exchange Folk Festival 2026
Regina has long been home to one of Canada’s most beloved music traditions. With the closure of the Regina Folk Festival, a meaningful cultural and community gap has emerged, one felt by audiences, artists, and the broader creative sector alike.
The Saskatchewan Cultural Exchange Society (The Exchange) is stepping forward to meet this moment.
We are launching a new, community-driven music festival, one that honours the spirit of what came before, while evolving to meet the needs of Regina today.
This is not simply a replacement. It is a strategic reset: more accessible, more inclusive, and built for long-term sustainability.
