The Lethbridge Electronic Music Festival (LEMF) will crank out the tunes starting at 11 a.m. Saturday in Galt Gardens.

Now in its seventh year, LEMF will feature five internatio­nally renowned headliners, including Slynk (AUS), Wood n Soo, (CAN), Joe Nice (USA), Cheshire (NZ), and Sammy Senior (NZ). There will also be performanc­es by 25 other acts, 15 of them from the Lethbridge area, spanning a multitude of genres of electronic music.

“Our goal at LEMF is to provide a free not-for-profit event that gives families and those who may not usually attend electronic events, an opportunit­y to check the scene out,” says David Fritz, current President of the LEMF organizing committee.

“We’re very proud to be family friendly and have an age range from children up through to seniors that come together to share a love of music. We have a planning committee that works year round on LEMF as well as throwing regular parties throughout the year.

“LEMF is a volunteer-driven event that requires over 40 people on the day of generously giving their time to help organize and run the event. It is truly by and for the community and we are very proud of that.”

The Lethbridge Electronic Music Festival goes until 11 p.m. Saturday and is free of charge for all ages. There will be a ticketed LEMF after party (18+) at Club Lime immediatel­y following the event at the Galt Gardens. For more informatio­n visit
