BY Brock ThiessenPublished Jun 16, 2016

As in years past, BC's expansive ArtsWells festival will make its return to the province. As such, the event has just rolled out its 2016 lineup.

Taking place on July 29 to August 1 in the historic town sites of Wells and Barkerville, the festival will feature more than 100 musical acts and 30-plus interdisciplinary artists, with 12 indoor and outdoor stages.

Helping create "something unmistakably different and surreal" this year will be musical acts such as the Pack A.D., Rae Spoon, Twin Peaks, Skye Wallace, Dada Plan, Carolyn Mark, Miss Quincy and Geoff Berner, among many others.

You can see the complete list of acts confirmed so far below (in reverse alphabetical order no less).
