We all know what out-of-season pro snowboarders really need is a party DJed by K-OS.
Tickets are now available for the Deraylor Music Festival, happening Aug. 13 to 15 in Whistler, B.C. The festival will host sets by over 45 Canadian and international bands and DJs — including Mr. Kuu-heaven himself, D.O.A., Shad and Felix Cartel — at various venues in Whistler. Deraylor is taking place in conjunction with the Kokanee Crankworx Festival.
"The goal is to turn the old music festival format on its head by creating a multi-venue, wristband festival that will establish Whistler as a great destination for local and international music events," said Deraylor co-founder and executive producer Tyl Van Toorn.
"I have never been more excited. We have been involved in producing music in Whistler for over a decade and I have never seen more people come together to build a great event. There is something really exciting and unique about having just about every live venue and bar in town working together to create such a unique experience."
Wristbands for the event cost $35 and grant concertgoers access to all Deraylor shows. Tickets are available through Ticketweb, at Zulu Records, Beat Street Records and Scratch Records in Vancouver and at Showcase Snowboards in Whistler. Admission to performances is subject to age (19+) and capacity restrictions.
