Empowering Women in the Music Industry - EWIMI 2025
 - rise, connect & create!
Axé WorldFest was founded on the principles of positivity, life force, and collaboration. Our fifth-annual conference takes these concepts to heart with our motivating theme of Rise, Connect, Create – EWIMI5. It encourages people to reach their potential, work with others, and build something beautiful that makes our industries stronger and more equitable.
This three-day conference brings together industry leaders and emerging talent to forge connections and spark new project ideas. Through panels, workshops, speed meetings, mentorship, showcases, networking events, and after-parties, the conference amplifies the voices and experiences of women and lifts up all genders.
The conference takes place in venues around the National Capital, providing economic opportunities to cultural workers and local businesses.
The National Arts Centre has been our presenting partner since the first edition supporting the celebration and advancement of women in the music industry.
All evening showcases are at the National Arts Center - you can get more info and buy
