About the Amplify BC Fund

Amplify BC programs serve B.C. artists, live music presenters, music companies, and the development of the music industry. The B.C. government established Amplify BC in 2018, and continues to launch programs each year after extensive consultations with the music industry. Creative BC also has established partnerships with Music BC and the First Peoples’ Cultural Council to support the development of B.C.’s music industry.

On April 19, 2023, the Province of BC announced a historic investment of $42 million to support people and businesses working in motion picture, music, publishing, and interactive digital media industries in British Columbia. This commitment includes $22.5 million over three years for Amplify BC, to build the province’s music talent, and help launch careers, extending the Province’s music funding programs until 2027.
