Online Calendar:

La Scena Musicale‘s online calendar is open to classical music and arts events in Canada and from around the world. It’s free to submit an event. See the procedure below.

Print Calendar:

For classical music and jazz events in the Province of Quebec and Ontario, La Scena Musicale offers free listings in our print magazine, which includes the event’s date, time, venue, price, phone number, and a 75-character description. Our national print magazine (2022-23) offers free listings for all Canadian classical and jazz events.

• COVID-19 Streaming Events: During COVID-19, our print magazine will include streaming concerts from across Canada
• Next Issue (Feb 2024): If your event is within the boundaries of our print calendar, you must submit your event in advance of the print deadline. For this issue, which covers events across Canada from Feb 1 to April 7, 2024, the deadline is scheduled for Jan. 12, 5 p.m.
• Future issues: Please consult dates of future issue at our Advertising page  (https://admin2.myscena.org/advertising/). For online listings alone, you can forward them to us at any time.

A Note for Summer festivals:

Our Summer issue in printed version will continue to publish the lists of Classical concerts programmed by Canadian festivals. You can submit your Classical music events by two ways:

• Online: follow the procedure below
• Using an Excel template: available here. Don’t forget to create an account online with the same email address you’re using in the document. Send the latter to [email protected]

 

Procedure for submitting events:

• Excel Document for multiple events (especially festivals and seasons):

  • You can also fill out an Excel document, with all the details required. Download the file here (right click and Save As). Email the excel document to [email protected]

 

• Online (ideal for single events)

  • Update (Jan. 24, 2024): Due to security, we’ve disable new user registration. Please send your event info to [email protected] and we would be happy to enter the event for you. Existing users can still login and submit their events online.
    • We invite you to sign up for your free account starting today at https://admin2.myscena.org/registration-users/ (Note, due to a bug, please enter the email address first and then the Username, and DO NOT use the TAB key to move between fields).
    • If you are representing a company or ensemble, please create an account using the company profile option with the name as it is known to the public. This is important as we will be introducing company and ensemble-specific features in the near future.
  • To submit events, please visit https://admin2.myscena.org/event-submission/ after logging in. All submitted events are held for approval by LSM staff before it is published. (If you have problems creating or logging in to your existing account, please contact us at this mail and we will forward you an Excel spreadsheet for this purpose.)
  • Event Location: Please make sure the event’s venue is not already in our database before creating a new venue. Simply type 3-5 letters of the venue’s name, wait a few seconds, and you’ll see the options in our database. If you submit an online event, please enter the name and postal address of the organization (i.e. not the address of the usual venue). Make sure that the link to your website is clearly indicated.
  • To view your events, visit https://admin2.myscena.org/my-events/.
  • Multiple performance events: if your event has multiple performances, you can duplicate the event by clicking the “+” symbol in the list of events. Then you can change the date, the venue, and even artists.
  • Event categories: check off the categories that match your event.
  • Event image: the system allows for a large image to make your event stand out on mySCENA. Don’t forget to upload an image.
