I’m going to start using our official Instagram account more than I have been. Watch for a lot of pictures to come soon.

Watch for our official @cannafestbc promo car somewhere near you.

A “tagging lesson” 🙂 If you are sharing or commenting about CannaFest please use @CannaFest, put the @ before CannaFest and it will take you to the official page. If you use a HASH TAG # instead all it does is act as a “search”. Great if you are posting pictures or comments from the actual event. #CannaFest does NOT take you to our official Facebook page @CannaFest DOES 😊

So… I’ve been having a little fun here at CannaFest HQ and thought I’d share with you some of the numbers. On August 9, 10 and 11, CannaFest2018’s stage will play host to artists who have achieved stats that only musical dreams are made of! When you think about the magnitude of this, compare it to Grand Forks, BC where the population is 4049 (plus 2😊 ) The collective numbers are: Performed for OVER 2.5 Billion people! (Yes that’s Billion…with a B!) Sold over 500 Million records! Performed in over 150 Countries! Have over 100 Million followers on Social Media! Won countless Awards including Junos, Grammys and Emmys! Several Hall of Fame Inductees! Recorded in Abbey Road Studios! …. And we haven’t even announced the Saturday night headliner yet 😊 #CannaFest2018 #Goosebumps

In 1974 Grand Funk, the self proclaimed American Band were working on their album Shinin’ On and was thinking that they may need one more song to complete it. Mark Farner as a lark began singing ‘Everybody’s doing a brand new dance now’, which with standard reaction other members of the band thought, ‘Yeah, Grand Funk doing the Locomotion’. Mark Farner who helped take the song to number 1 in 1974 will be performing CannaFest 2018. Right after his set we will attempt to break the current world record for the longest loco-motion dance. Everybody at CannaFest can be part of history by grabbing on to the person at the end of the "loco-motion" train and join in. We will have a Guinness representative on-site to verify the record and present the CannaFest owner an official framed certificate.
