Olympic Concerts in Metro Vancouver - handy handout #1

This is the first in a series of user-friendly print outs with scheduled acts during the Vancouver Olympics. FYI, I obviously focused on Canadian indie acts, and did not include an exhaustive list of performances, although larger international acts are noted.

If this is helpful to you at all, please forward them on with a link back to this blog. All of the information courtesy of their respective websites.

The following schedule are concerts under the umbrella of the Cultural Olympiad. The left column are free concerts whereas the right column are ticketed. For more information, go to vancouver2010.com.

If you would like a Word document forwarded to you, please email me at brendahlee [at] gmail [dot] com.
