Arts writer Mike Devlin picks his favourite upcoming events, including Free-B Film Fest in Beacon Hill Park on Friday, Aug. 16 and Saturday, Aug. 17.
When: Friday, Aug. 16 and Saturday, Aug. 17, 9 p.m.Why: There’s plenty to like about the Free-B Film Festival, the beloved outdoor movies series by the team behind the Victoria Film Festival. Not only is the event held at Cameron Bandshell in Beacon Hill Park free to attend, it gives residents and visitors an opportunity to use the under-utilized urban park for something other than feeding ducks and petting baby goats.
Why: Cumberland Village Works and Mt. Eliah — the creative and organizational forces behind the gone-but-not-forgotten Cumberland Wild festival and, years prior, the Atompshere Gathering — have returned with Rock the Block, a street party in downtown Cumberland featuring performances by the Boom Booms, Mood Swing & Chevy Bass, Coal Dust Gang, Mt. Eliah, The Spin Jinny, Miss Pippin Pipsqueak and more.
