In partnership with Manitoba Music, the diverse showcase -- dubbed Scène Manitobaine -- features performances by globe-trotting folk/roots quartet Oh My Darling, genre-defying singer/songwriter marijosée, hip hop outfit Namwira Folks, and punk/rockers Les Sexy.

Beyond an a stellar night of live music, Scène Manitobaine will host key local industry players as well as a Québec booker to bring attention to Manitoba's strong francophone music community. The event also offers the artists a chance to get valuable feedback from expers and gain more showcasing experience.

Le 100 Nons has hosted hundreds of concerts, workshops, and activities over the years thus sensitizing the population to the riches of the vibrant Franco-Manitoban culture.
