Appendix B: 2025 Provincial Festival Rules & Classes
Appendix C: Canada West Performing Arts Festival Syllabus

Individuals cannot enter the Provincial Festival directly. They must enter and compete at a Local Member Festival and fulfill provincial eligibility requirements for a chance to be recommended to the Provincial Festival. Many Local Member Festivals also have an addendum to the AMFA syllabus which may include additional classes (or omit some AMFA syllabus classes). A full listing of AMFA Local Member Festivals can be found HERE.
