Mark your Calendar: Toronto’s Virgin Festival

virgin_fest.jpg
This weekend is Toronto’s second annual Virgin Festival! For September 8-9th, the Toronto Island Park is turning into a massive stage for music veterans and ‘up and comers’. With acts like The Smashing Pumpkins, Interpol, Bjork, Tokyo Police Club, Metric and The Killers the line for the ferry will be back-logged, so pack a lunch! (Or munch on some street-meat, a healthy replacement).

Gates open at 1pm and close at 11pm on both days and I must mention that once you’re on the Island, you’re not allowed leaving. A little possessive, aren’t they? The deal is that you can leave, but there’s no re-entry due to access control and security. For ticket prices and how to purchase them, check out the Virgin Festival website at www.virginfestival.ca

Lastly, but surpassing in the cool factor, one dollar of every ticket bought is donated to a non-profit organization. Basically, you’re enjoying awesome tunes while positively contributing. Kudos.
