Bass Coast offers an array of curated experiences — art installations, murals, workshops, movement classes, performance art, music, artisan vendors, spa and culinary vending. Each year artists, artisans and educators come together to make the festival a success.
The 19th edition of Bass Coast Festival will be held on July 9-12, 2027.
Bass Coast is an independent, artist-owned electronic music and arts festival held annually on the shared traditional territories of the Nlaka’pamux and Syilx Nations in Merritt, BC. Now in its 19th year, the festival is known for forward-thinking music programming, unique stage environments, large-scale art installations, and an expressive and open-hearted community. It has been awarded DJ Mag’s Best Boutique Festival in North America for two consecutive years and named Best Midsize Festival in Canada by the Canadian Live Music Industry Awards.
Bass Coast welcomes and encourages applications from Indigenous people, Black people, people of colour, women, 2SLGBTQIA+ people, people with disabilities, people living in poverty, and newcomers to Canada.
