Show up For the Island!

On Friday, November 28, join us at Dickens for a special fundraising event in support of Sled Island!

In true Sled fashion, we’ve got a genre-diverse lineup with some seriously exciting performers, including iconic Afro-fusion artist MAUVEY, acclaimed art rock outfit Sunglaciers, incomparable hip-hop queen Tea Fannie, and spellbinding alt-pop project SHY FRiEND.

Believe us when we say, you gotta see these acts LIVE!

We’ll also have tons of merch available for purchase, including limited edition posters, t-shirts, hats, ear plugs, totes and more! PLUS, you can finally get your hands on our brand-new Sled Dogs 2026 calendar!

Tickets are $25 in advance, $30 at the door.

As always, thank you for your ongoing support!  

Kick off the new year with Sled Dogs!

In support of our year-end fundraising initiatives, we’ve gathered some of our favourite furry friends to create a 2026 calendar for all the Sled goers and dog lovers!

Pre-order by November 11 to guarantee your copy! A limited number will be available after pre-sale closes.

Sled Island is a registered charity, and all proceeds will be directly invested in the production of the 2026 festival, and our year-round efforts to foster a more inclusive and accessible music and arts community.

Pick-up and shipping options within Canada are available. For more information and to purchase your calendar, visit Showpass.com/Sled-Island-Merch.
