The following is excerpted from Bass Coast Festival and InfoTel News Kelowna.

Bass Coast Festival is a thoughtfully curated boutique music and art festival that takes place in the picturesque shared traditional territories of the Nłeʔkepmx and Syilx. Moving into its 14th year, Bass Coast has garnered a global reputation for showcasing innovative international talent and providing a springboard for Canadian artists.

2019 saw Bass Coast win the acclaimed 'Best Boutique Festival in North America" award from leading industry publication DJMag and make its Boiler Room debut with two full days of programming broadcast live on the preeminent streaming platform.

As reported by InfoTel News Kelowna, the Bass Coast’s art installation program, which provides funding for artists to create art and bring it onsite, will see 58 installations and eight live artists next week, making it the largest temporary art installation in the province and the biggest installation yet for the festival since it launched the program in 2008.

Bass Coast is happening this weekend, July 8-11. To learn more about the festival, click here.
