Hot and sunny is the forecast for both days, so bring sunscreen, water, and shade!
The Vancouver International Jazz Festival takes over the Roundhouse and David Lam Park, on Pacific between Davie and Drake.
Performer lineup for the outdoor stage is here: www.coastaljazz.ca/index.cfm
First show each day is at noon, last act starts at 8pm. The groups selected for this stage tend to be very accessible and dance-worthy.. and great for hooping!
If the stage is set up as usual, there will be an excellent space for hooping just to the street-side of the stage - no one sits here, because they all want to watch the performers, so it is a great area for us to dance around with hoops, play with poi and juggling toys! The fence along the side and backstage area is a great place to drop your gear, lock up bikes, set up shade, etc... there IS still a chance of belongings going missing, with so many people wandering through, so plan accordingly!
Saturday I plan to get there no later than 3, possibly closer to 2 (I need to cat-sit after waterpolo in the morning, not sure how long that will take) and stay for most of the afternoon and evening.... Sunday possibly the same if I can postpone a transfer-of-house-lease meeting!
Please come and play, and bring poi I'll have at least 15 hoops and three sets of poi with me to share, and it will be an awesome day :)
