It just keeps getting better for you if you're interested in seeing live music during the Games. If you want to see Damian Marley, Coeur de Pirate, Wintersleep, Mother Mother, Jully Black, Wilco and a TON of other artists FOR FREE (!!!) then Live City Vancouver is gonna be your spot. Or, I should say, spots! The festival consists of two free, non-ticketed outdoor celebration sites, one in Yaletown at David Lam Park and the other at Georgia and Cambie, and it goes from February 13th until the 27th.
- LiveCity Yaletown in David Lam Park will feature a number of top local, Canadian and international entertainers on the stage, plus big-screen Olympic Winter Games sporting coverage, Olympic sponsor and partner pavilions, educational and family programming.
- LiveCity Downtown at Cambie and Georgia will have a licensed lounge (LIVE@LiveCity) with TV screens showing the Games, and additional live music acts. It will be a place for people to stop by for a drink, watch the games, live music and connect with other people.
- Both sites are all-ages and totally free.
Below is the complete schedule for both sites. Seriously ridiculous! You can learn all about it on the Live City web site or by joining their Facebook fan page.
