That sounds great! When I lived in Canada I found it tough to find any festivals outside of Harvest and their related things plus mainstream events like DEMF/Movement and WEMF. Every now and then I found a weird outdoor psytrance happening, but it didn't seem as well-established as other countries. West coast has Bass Coast and Shambhala but I think they're pretty large/mainstream too. I had a buddy in BC who started throwing hippie transcendental meditation/trance dance stuff with that whole techno/new age crossover thing, but they were really small scale, like under 50 people. Had no idea stuff was going on in the Atlantic provinces. Have fun! I think working outdoor parties is a great gig for a traveler who is into music. Now i am back employed in office work i am always super grateful for the crew who put together these awesome events that create a wonderful escape for us corpo drones...

The scene in Atlantic Canada is small but fun. Our biggest event(future forest) has 2000 people. Our smaller events like not so thatch and Vitality have 100-200 people. It’s a vibe where everyone knows each other and helps each other.
