We believe that Indigenous musicians and storytellers are powerful world builders and changemakers. Our stories tell us who we have been, who we are right now, and who we can become. Join us in amplifying, and celebrating Indigenous voices and artistic excellence around the world.

The International Indigenous Music Summit (IIMS) is a unique gathering of artists, knowledge keepers, community builders, allies and cultural innovators. IIMS 2025 will amplify and empower Indigenous artists and industry through ceremony, connection, inspiration and dialogue; and foster opportunities that create and deepen relationships within the Indigenous music community and across mainstream industry.

The annual event takes place over five days for Indigenous artists and the music industry come together to honour tradition and forge new paths, through curated musical showcases, networking activities, panels and ceremonies.
