The three-day festival will be held across three stages at the spectacular Laketown Ranch. The 172-acre site, located in Cowichan Valley, is Canada’s largest permanent outdoor stage, according to festival organizers.

This year’s headliners include legendary hip hop group Wu-Tang Clan, as well as Ludacris, Third Eye Blind, and Nelly. The festival will also include Canadian fan-favourites like A Tribe Called Red and Current Swell.
