PREPARE THE GROUND is a community-led arts & heavy music festival taking place across multiple venues in Toronto, Ontario – the first of its kind in the city. The festival was founded by two lifelong friends, Toronto-based concert promoter Denholm Whale and KW Campol of music management company Mythos & the Perpetual Flame Ministries record label & art house.
Drawing inspiration from European festival stalwarts like Roadburn, Sonicboom, and Amplifest, Prepare the Ground is focused on heavy music as an ethos of collective catharsis more than a dedication to one specific metal subgenre. From burgeoning artists, to favorites you never thought would reunite, to one-off full album sets, a heavily curated and meticulously planned lineup is the festival’s key component.
