After generating a summer full of buzz and excitement since the initial lineup announcement for Wonderfront Music & Arts Festival this past June, the organizers have now announced additional artists to and released the daily schedule of performers. We are also raffling off 2 weekend passes to attend the highly-anticipated inaugural event. Read on and be sure to enter for a chance to win.
"Our goal with this lineup was to have it stacked from start to finish each day with great artists," explained Wonderfront co-founnder Paul Thorton. "It’s hard to really call any certain bands our so-called headliners as so many lines of bands on this festival are all headliners in their own right. We’ve had a tough time choosing between so many talented artists across the many genres into the finite number of stage slots available. We also wanted a great mix of artists across the time slots, so that not all the bigger names were just playing at the same later times. We really appreciate the artists that have worked with us to make that possible. And since announcing the response has been fantastic, and many more artists have approached us and that is why the number of artists keeps growing, plus we are still booking the artists for the boat parties and the Silent Disco DJ sets."
In the early 2000s, Tony Hawk’s Boom Boom HuckJam Tour was the biggest, high-flying spectacle in action sports, traveling the country and playing the biggest arenas in the land. Now, Tony is bringing back the HuckJam ramp to Wonderfront with bands like Pennywise, Suicidal Tendencies, X, DJ Z-Trip and a crew of some of the best professional vert skaters and bmx bikers in the world, including Tony Hawk himself, Andy MacDonald, Bucky Lasek, Lizzie Armanto, Kevin Staab, Elliot Sloan, Lincoln Ueda, Simon Tabron, Jimmy Wilkins, Paul Luc Ronchetti, Evan Doherty, Marcello Bastos, and Jordyn Barret.
