MoSo is a music and technology event that has been held annually in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan in Canada since 2011. It is divided into two parts held concurrently: a technology conference known as MoSo Conf (the name MoSo is derived from the term "Mobile Social"), and a music festival known as MoSo Fest. Technology-related sessions take place during the day Thursday to Saturday; musical performances generally happen at night Wednesday to Sunday, although a daytime outdoor stage was added in 2014 accompanied by several food carts. The event typically takes place in the second or third week of June.

MoSo was started by Ryan Lejbak, founder and CEO of the Saskatoon digital agency zu. It was inspired by the Austin, Texas-based festival SXSW.

Artists who have performed at MoSo Fest include Timber Timbre, We Are the City, Rah Rah, Ladyhawk and Astronautalis.
