Live at Squamish 2011: Schedule
byThe second annual Live at Squamish music festival kicks off in about 48 hours as thousands prepare for good times in a field and a fun-filled schedule of music and activities. Whether you’re camping out, staying in Squamish or Whistler, or just heading up for a day, the festival should have something for you. From DJ’s and dancing to food truck eats and open air rock. The full schedule was recently released as well as a special treat for Friday in case any keeners want to get a preview of the grounds.

Spots are all sold out but if you booked camping, the grounds open at 12:00pm.
Sound Check Party from 6:00pm to 8:00pm with The Matinée, My!Gay!Husband! and Kuba Oms and the Velvet Revolution. The first 1,000 people to show up will get in and you don’t even need a Live at Squamish ticket to attend this preview. The beer garden will also be open at this time.

You can download a free festival guide for on-site information this weekend or download the free iPhone app. Follow the Twitter tag #LAS2011 or @LiveatSquamish for instant updates.
Some quick tips: Do bring a blanket, your own picnic (no bigger than a lunchbox), water (in a container no more than 1.5 litres), a camera (just not professional size if you’re not accredited media) and a smile and your dancin’ shoes. Do not bring chairs, BBQ’s frisbees, umbrellas, all the regular pointy/dangerous weaponry type stuff, laser pointers, fireworks and the like. There are in-and-out privileges and pass-holders will get wrist-bands for the weekend. The site is also smoke free.
If you haven’t secured on-site parking then you can park in downtown Squamish and take the free shuttle to the festival off Cleveland Ave. There is also a free bike valet for those who cycle in.
Tickets are still available for $89 (single day, purchased before Friday) and $19 (weekend passes, purchased before Friday at midnight). Prices go up to $110 (single day) and $190 (weekend) after the Friday night deadline.

Great line-up of talent again this year. It will be the concert of the summer. Forecasts say the weather will cooperate too. It just doesn’t get any better than that.
Haven’t been to Squamish in awhile.
