Introduction of Information of Bass Coast Festival

“A DIY endeavour founded and run by women with no sponsors or corporate presence whatsoever, it’s a unique fixture in a region already known for its plethora of festivals…”

Andrea Graham, aka The Librarian, established with Thomson, who is the Co-founder of art collective the Guild. Corporate connection and social media are kept aside when people enter this mesmerizing place and get engaged with environment.

Without Sponsorship or advertising the event is funded by its clan. Last year showcasing art including a giant telescope, a handmade Stargate, a tent filled with taxidermied crow feet that could be pulled from the ceiling to reveal a person’s fortune, and numerous blank walls for attendees to write, draw, or doodle on, the event invited plenty of imagination.

The ninth instalment of the boutique event attendees were astonished and loved everything from inflatable astronaut costumes to NASA flight jackets and giant rocket ships, “space” was the theme for 2017, but the real motif may as well have been “collaboration”. Everything onsite—including the garbage cans—was art-designed by festival co-creator, Liz Thomson, to facilitate conversation and invites you to detox your life.

Ask any EDM devote in Western Canada, and they’ll tell you that Bass Coast is more than just a festival—it’s a cultural mecca. Nestled in the woods at the curve of Coldwater River near Merritt, the site has four major stages and world-class performers, but unlike most music events, attendees don’t buy their tickets for the big-name bragging rights.

Established as an escape from the outside world for creatives, it’s a home of giant art, intimate panel discussions, and a base-camp for collaboration and exploration.
