Capital Music Awards

Last night, the Ottawa Music Industry Coalition (OMIC) announced its winners for the sixth annual Capital Music Awards.

The city keeps getting greener, and the weather will be heating up again this weekend, in time for some of our favourite spring activities. Whether it’s shopping, catching some live music or sports or just trying something new, get out there and enjoy the city!

In case you missed it, voting for the Capital Music Awards is now open!

So if there’s a local artist, band, or music industry professional you feel deserves recognition, now’s the time to get those nominations in!

Nominations are now open for the sixth annual Capital Music Awards until Nov. 11 at 5pm EDT. This year’s event will take place at the National Arts Centre’s Southam Hall on May 22, 2025.

Congratulations to all of the winners and to everyone who worked on putting together such a successful event!

I don’t think any of us were expecting to see grass and open water so soon, so take advantage of the weather and enjoy some sunshine, or some sugar shacks perhaps?

Nominations for the 2024 Capital Music Awards are now open until February 19, 2024.

Last Thursday night, during a sold-out, star-studded show at the Bronson Centre Music Theatre, the Ottawa Music Industry Coalition announced the winners of the 2023 Capital Music Awards.

Last night, at the fourth annual OMIC Capital Music Awards, Apartment613 was thrilled and honoured to receive the Community Impact Award on behalf of our volunteer contributors—in particular those who have written about, photographed, promoted and supported live music and local musicians in Ottawa-Gatineau.

Break out the stretchy pants and walking shoes Ottawa! The summer is in full swing with food festivals, yoga festivals, film festivals, and shopping festivals (okay, that last one is a bit of a stretch…).
