With a heavy heart, we must announce the cancellation of the 2025 Elevation Music Festival. After much deliberation, this difficult decision stems from ongoing financial losses over the past few years, rising costs of event production, and a lack of corporate sponsorship essential to sustaining the event.
While this news is disappointing, we want to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude to you – our festival family. Your unwavering support, energy, and passion for music have been the heart and soul of Elevation Music Festival. From the unforgettable performances to the shared joy of music beneath the open sky, these moments wouldn’t have been possible without you.
World Music Development remains committed to fostering the spirit of music and community. Though this chapter is closing, our dedication to promoting cultural harmony through the power of music continues.
We hope the memories made at Elevation Music Festival over the years remain as cherished for you as they are for us. Your support has meant everything.
Is real peace just the absence of war? Can real peace exist without proper education in a community? Can real peace exist without proper nutrition in a community? Can real peace exist without proper housing in a community? Can real peace exist without proper health care in a community? And, can real peace exist without a good economy in a community? We think not!
Create peace through music.
Enhance and enrich communities by integrating music into various aspects of life. This is ultimately achieved through global artist partnerships, comprehensive music programs, and unwavering support for nonprofit initiatives.
