Wednesday Concert Series back for eighth year
Every Wednesday from 5:30 p.m., starting July 4 – August 29 at The Arts Station, Station Square
The Art Station Wednesday Concert Series returns July 4. Nine weeks of free concerts, popping up each week in Station Square, a sizzling summer of live music and good times in downtown Fernie.
No need to book or buy tickets – just show up and enjoy the tunes on the deck at the Arts Station on 601-1st Street. The music is free and everyone’s welcome!
5:30-9 p.m.: Beverage Gardens serving Fernie Brewing Company beers, B.C. wine and B.C. cider. Kid’s Tent & Food Trucks.
