Our fifth annual Flummunity Fest is quickly approaching and we’re beyond excited to see you all in Vancouver! That’s right – after two years of celebrating with you virtually, we’re finally gearing up for our return to hosting Flummunity Fest in-person! Tickets for the in-person event are now sold out, but we’ll be live-streaming select portions of the event so you can still join us from home.
We’re busy creating a schedule packed with fantastic Fluevog festivities to ensure that this becomes a weekend you’ll always remember. Here’s a little sneak peek at some of the things we have planned for you this year!*
