BESTIVAL TORONTO
MUSIC AND ARTS FESTIVAL JUNE 12 & 13
HEADLINED BY FLORENCE + THE MACHINE AND NAS
REVEALS SET TIMES, FESTIVAL MAP AND MORE
FOR FESTIVAL’S NORTH AMERICAN DEBUT
After much anticipation, BESTIVAL is finally arriving. In advance of its North American debut at Hanlan’s Point Beach in the Toronto Islands, BESTIVAL has released set times for the festival being held this Friday, June 12 & Saturday, June 13. Full details on the set times can be found below. For BESTIVAL-goer’s convenience, the festival has also released a map that details the complete grounds, which can be found here.
Excited for the North American launch, BESTIVAL curator Rob da Bank has released a video previewing the enchanting elements of the festival that go beyond the music. Despite its strong lineup headlined by Florence + The Machine and NAS, da Bankemphasizes thatthe non-musical elements like Fancy Dress, which allow festival-goers to partake in a world of fantasy and escapism, are actually what set BESTIVAL apart from other festivals.
