Organizer, TNRD spar over music festival
KAMLOOPS —The Thompson-Nicola Regional District says it appears organizers of a music festival planned for the Deadman Valley next month are preparing to go ahead, despite having none of the proper permits in place.
Development Services Director Regina Sadilkova says the Electric Love Music Festival is advertised to be held at the Allie Lake Ranch near Vidette on the BC Day long weekend.
Sadilkova says the event is completely unsanctioned.
“We have been in touch with them, they did submit some applications. They weren’t 100 per cent complete. Those applications were submitted, I believe, in early February. Even in early February they would not have made a July event date,” stated Sadilkova.
