E‑LYMPIA marks a historic reunion celebrating two decades of Music for Mavericks, the Edmonton label that helped define the city's hip‑hop, R&B, and reggae identity. This special night brings the family back together with live performances from cornerstone artists including Politic Live, Kreesha Turner, K‑Riz, Oozeela, Mouraine, and other Mavericks alumni whose voices and vision shaped the movement.

More than a concert, E‑LYMPIA is an immersive cultural experience. A curated museum installation will showcase twenty years of rare memorabilia, archival footage, original artwork, vintage merch, and behind‑the‑scenes artifacts — a living timeline of the label's evolution and impact. Fans can walk through the history, reconnect with the stories, and rediscover the creative spark that made Music for Mavericks a pillar of Edmonton's urban music scene.

E‑LYMPIA is a homecoming, a tribute, and a cultural time capsule brought to life — inviting longtime supporters, new fans, and the city's creative community to celebrate the legacy and future of Mavericks music.

E‑LYMPIA's Museum runs in one hour time slots from 3 – 8pm. Please select your museum time slot in the drop down menu.

E‑LYMPIA's concert runs from 7 – 11pm.
