You can participate in the costume competition with your best 1950s outfit, so pull those poodle skirts out of storage and come on over! We’ll be hosting local rockers Rebel Luv for live music and spectators are welcome to listen and dance! Bo Betty’s and Law of Attraction food trucks will be here, and we’ll have a Nostalgia Wines and Firehall Brewing drinks garden, plus an artisan market to shop for local treasures. Through this event, we’ll be raising money for a local rider participating in the Tour de Cure for BC Cancer Foundation.
Please note there will not be a grape stomp this year, as Nostalgia vineyard has no grapes due to the winter freeze last year, and it takes 1,000 pounds of grapes to host the stomp. We will have plenty of action and fun for all!
