Sonora Music Festival
SONORA is an emerging music and arts gathering rooted in nature in the Montcalm region. A meeting ground for Montreal’s indie spirit, weaving together Indie Electronica, Soul, Nu Jazz, Funk, Dub, Organica, Jungle, House, UK Garage and DnB.
Curated by Carré Sonore, the 2024 edition brought together live performances, sound baths, mindfulness sessions and a camping experience shaped to reconnect with the elemental. The first edition was paused due to extreme weather and limited RSVPs.
Since 2025, Sonora has shifted toward a Future Festival Research and Sustainability initiative. This year’s exploration led us to Burning Man in Black Rock City, Nevada, diving into one of the world’s most singular DIY experiments in art and community. We returned with creative insights, a deeper sense of community building and renewed inspiration.

A Short-Film
Lost in a vast, dreamlike expanse, Alexandre drifts between motion and stillness, searching for an answer just beyond reach. Time slips through his fingers like sand, the horizon forever distant. Caught in the space between becoming and being, he listens~waiting for the silence to speak. Not yet, but almost.
