About the Hudson Music Festival
The Hudson Music Festival (HMF) was established in 2007 to highlight and support the vibrant
cultural environment in the village of Hudson, Quebec. The mission of the HMF is to provide
performance opportunities for talented professional and amateur musicians from the region,
and to bring exciting national and international artists to the Hudson community.
The music produced and presented by HMF is not restricted to one specific genre, and is
explicitly selected to encourage innovation, surprising collaborations, and the performance of
new work. This focus allows artists to take risks with their work and exposes festivalgoers to
music and artistic approaches they might not have the opportunity to experience anywhere
else. The HMF is committed to expanding its musical programming in the coming years and taking its place among major music festivals in Eastern Canada.
