WHISTLER, BC, April 10, 2008 –
The TELUS World Ski and Snowboard Festival’s unique fusion sports, music and arts gets underway April 11 in Whistler and operations crews are busy getting the resort ready for ten days and nights of non-stop events and entertainment.
In the Village, where 11cm of snow fell earlier in the week to freshen up the 265cm base, 10 tonnes of scaffolding is being set up to build viewing platforms, the Pontiac Battle of the Bands stage, and the Outdoor Concert Series Main Stage, where headline acts De La Soul, Lil’Jaz, The John Butler Trio, Blackalicious, The Trews, Ill Scarlett, Daniel Wesley, Julian Marley and Michael Franti & Spearhead will perform free concerts daily from 2:30pm.
At the conference center the Telus DJ Experience is showcasing DJ’s Mark Farina, Donald Glaude and DJ Dan. Last year Tall Paul rocked a sold out show with over 1100 people and this year will be no exception to the rule promising a mega audio and visual production which will rival the best nightclubclubs in the world.
