Description

IGNITE! Festival of Emerging Artists takes place June 3–6, 2026 at The Pumphouse Theatre in Calgary, presented by Sage Theatre as a vibrant multi-disciplinary celebration of early-career creativity. This four-day festival brings together around 100 emerging artists each year, showcasing bold new work across theatre, performance, music, dance, and experimental art forms. Designed as both a performance platform and development opportunity, IGNITE! supports artistic risk-taking in a collaborative and mentorship-driven environment. The event also fosters networking, community building, and professional growth for Calgary’s next generation of artists, making it both a performance series and a creative incubator. #ignitefestival #sage theatre #calgaryarts #yyc #livetheatre #emergingartists #performingarts #cultureyyc #gozeeit #thingstodoincalgary
