To kick off the festival this year, we’re hosting a special opening party at Sled Village, located at Haus of SpanicArts (131 6 Ave SW)!
This FREE event was created as a space to meet like-minded people, find new folks to sled with, and get excited for an epic week ahead! Come pick up your festival wristband, bring your friends, and enjoy beer and other bevvies, snacks, DJs, and more!
Plus, it’s also the opening reception for the annual Sled Island Poster Show!
PRO TIP: If you’re trying to convince your friends to attend the fest with you, bring ‘em along to the party so they can connect with fellow festival-goers and get a sense of the serious fun that’s to come!
