"Squamish is an ideal location for the music festival as we are situated on the Pacific Ocean at the base of the Stawamus Chief and only 40 minutes north of Vancouver along the scenic Sea to Sky highway. We also have new and expanded accommodation facilities that will help to make this weekend event an incredible experience," Squamish Mayor Greg Gardner said in a news release.
