LET’S HEAR IT LIVE

In addition to JunoFest taking place this weekend, the 2018 Vancouver host committee has come up with the brilliant idea of a warm-up free show featuring a wide range of local sounds. Following the Coast Salish welcome to those partying on unceded traditional lands, the lineup features Fox Glove, Astrocolor, Shawn Austin, Mob Bounce with DJ Kookum, The Boom Booms, Little Destroyer and then the place will completely blow its top. Why? Because the Funk Hunters, pictured, and guests hit the stage at 8 p.m.

When: Friday, 12:45 p.m. to 9 p.m. Where: Vancouver Art Gallery, North Plaza Free: letshearitbc.com
