Vancouver Folk Music Festival 2010

The 2010 Vancouver Folk Music Festival goes down this weekend at Jericho Beach Park and on a beautiful sunny weekend, such as the one that is forecasted, good times will be had by all. Jericho beach is the perfect place to kick back and relax to some great music. This is also a great family event as they have lots of activities for the young ones at the little folks village.

This year is the 33rd annual Folk Festival and tickets can be bought here.
