WSSF Adds More Artists To Free Concert Series
As you may have heard by now, the World Ski & Snowboard Festival is returning to Whistler on April 7th, 2017. There's going to be lots of fun events going on in the village for the week of the festival. One of the most highly anticipated parts of WSSF every year is the FIDO Free Outdoor Concert Series. These outdoor concerts, thrown at Skier's Plaza, have been a hit among locals and visitors who attend. Each year they bring amazing Canadian and international musical talent to rock the Main Stage for FREE!
That's right, these concerts are all free, so you have pretty much no excuse for not making it out to at least one of the shows. Plus, the artists they have playing this year are so good that I probably don't need to be trying to convince you.
