The BIG THAW is a fundraising concert designed to showcase and celebrate some of the region's finest talent! This all-acoustic evening of music will be housed at the Parish Church of St. Michael and All Angels, where the acoustics are phenomenal and the candles burn brightly. Featuring unplugged performances by regional artists Big Fancy, Khast'an Drummers, Lindsay Pratt, Nove Voce Choral Society and Samantha Scott, the parish will be alive with the sound of Northern BC!

After being awash with the powerhouse playing of some of the region's finest, put on your dancing shoes and head to The Legion 43 PG where Mad Loon is hosting the PUDDLE STOMP afterparty! Featuring indie dance-rockers Crones and the funky, groovy spins of DJ Fresh Princess, this segment of the evening will give you the opportunity to kick up your heels and check out the silent auction!

The BIG THAW and PUDDLE STOMP afterparty are together a CFUR Fundraising event. All proceeds will contribute to the sustainability of your local community radio, and improve their ability to support and promote Northern BC arts and culture.

Doors at 7:00PM, Show at 7:30PM

Silent Auction of Festival Passes and a whole lot more available to peruse.
