Play that Music Louder!
Greetings, Volunteers!
As we take the chilly plunge into March today, I’d like to give the Folk Fest a big pat on the back. We’ve accomplished quite a lot in the early weeks of 2017, and there are no signs of stopping. We were fortunate to have another successful season of Block Heater – a winter music extravaganza. With all 12 sessions sold out, fantastic weather conditions, and amazing volunteers, we definitely ‘rocked the block.’ Check out our Flickr page for pics from the Friday, Saturday and Sunday of the event.
We also had an amazing start to our Spring Concert Series at Festival Hall. Things kicked things off with moving performances at the Revolution will be Televised and Freedom Singer, and we just enjoyed the superb tunes of Joey Landreth last night. Need more music in your life? See below for upcoming concert dates.
And finally, the moment you’ve all been waiting for: the 38th annual Calgary Folk Music Festival. We’ve kicked off our ‘Leak of the Week’ campaign, and are super excited that Blue Rodeo and Coeur De Pirate will be joining us this year. Tickets are on sale now, and, as volunteers, you get a 10% discount for your friends. Call us at 403.233.0904 or drop by our office for more details.
Cheers, volunteers!
