AEMCON returns to Calgary, Alberta on November 15-18, 2018. The conference will bring together industry leaders with the intention of inspiring and elevating Canada’s electronic music scene. Spread across four days, AEMCON will host a diverse selection of more than 100+ guest speakers and performers.

AEMCON 2017

In addition to the day events, there were over 16 night events to choose from. Attendees had a wide selection of music to take in. Whether it was the Live Electronic Showcase at Habitat or headliner shows at Hi-Fi, Nite Owl, and Broken City. Headliners included Joe Nice, Foreign Beggers, J. Philip, the Librarian and many more. Not only did headliners please the attendees, but also the ‘local artists’ wowed the audience with just as much skill and creativity as the headliners.
