The first Cariboo Rocks the North saw over 6,000 people attend for three days of live musical entertainment.
Because of the success, the festival will return in 2019. More details will be released in the coming months.
“Closer to Christmas time, so November or early December, we will announce the lineup and ticket prices will change based on the different acts we might have,” explains CN Centre Manager Glen Mikkelson. He says the response they have received about the festival has exceeded expectations.
“One person I was talking to is in their mid-50’s and said it was the best music weekend of their life.”
People came to Cariboo Rocks the North from all over the region including Kitimat, Smithers, and Williams Lake.
Pre-purchase passes for next year’s festival will be on sale until the end of August.
