The Whistler Summer Concert Series features five different musical acts this weekend all brought to you by the Village of Whistler.

Starting the weekend concert series off is Montreal's Vince Vaccaro. Fresh off his massive hit 'Costa Rica' this indie rocker is set to take the stage at 8:30PM. Following Vaccaro is Hamilton based band Blackie and the Rodeo Kings. This Canadian folk rock band is set to hit the stage at 9:15PM.

On Saturday night Vancouver based band The Boom Booms get things started off at 8:30PM. The second show of the night features a home coming of sorts as former local Whistlerite Kytami takes the stage at 9:15PM to play for her old home town.

Wrapping things up on Sunday night is hip hop artist Emmanuel Jal. Jal's personal story is one of both tragedy and triumph as this Sudanese resident grew up as child in the middle of war. However after falling in love with hip hop he has managed to make quite the name for himself in the music industry; while at the same time serving as a loyal activist against the use of children in his war torn country of Sudan. Jal is set to take the stage Sunday night at 8:30PM.

Make sure to catch all the FREE shows this weekend at Whistler's Olympic Plaza Stage.
