This yr, the event will be held in Whitehorse, YT, from October 2 to 6, 2019. BreakOut West is comprised of a four-day music conference, a three-night multi-genre music festival, the Western Canadian Music Awards Reception and the Western Canadian Music Industry Awards Brunch. Before you dive in, it’s important that you just determine whether you’re able to make that transfer. Organized live exhibits are very different from performing throughout open mic nights, at your local club or venue, so you should make positive you are prepared.
