TIME: 2:45 PM

LOCATION: MNP District Lounge at Canada Life Place • 99 Dundas Street • London, ON

Live music events across Canada are increasingly impacted by weather and climate-related risks, creating new challenges for event planning, operations and financial sustainability.

Drawing on insights from the Climate Contingency Roadmap and the development of the Canadian Live Music Association’s new Climate Preparedness Toolkit, this presentation will demonstrate how evidence-based planning can strengthen climate resilience for live music events nationwide. Participants will leave with practical strategies and resources to help ensure the long-term sustainability of live music in a changing climate.
