Festival Distribution was a Canadian independent record label and music distributor, specializing in folk, blues, and world music artists. The company was formed in 1993 when it purchased the music distribution arm of the Vancouver Folk Music Festival. At it's zenith, there were over 3,000 titles offered.
The distribution company marketed the music from many important Canadian artists; Stan Rogers, Connie Kaldor, Roy Forbes, Kobo Town, Kiran Ahluwalia, the catalogues of NorthernBlues and Electro-fi to name a few.
The company's imprint Jericho Beach Music is still active with releases by James Keelaghan, Alpha Yaya Diallo, The Wailin' Jennys, Kim Barlow, e.s.l, Ndidi Onukwulu, and Geoff Berner in the active catalogue. In 2011, the label released "Una Mas Y Ya Nos Vamos" by Locarno.
Festival was also the Canadian distributor for American and international labels in the genres, including Righteous Babe, Red House, Hightone, Delmark, Waterlily Acoustic, Moment, Music for Little People .....
The distribution operation closed its doors in 2008 owing to the general downturn in the market for physical CDs.
