We’re excited to make the first official announcement confirming our contract with Live Nation for the largest music event to hit Western Canada – the Pemberton Festival!
Picture the headlines…
Local children’s music duo Bobs & Lolo shares line-up with Coldplay, Jay-Z, the Tragically Hip, Tom Petty and more!
Well, we won’t really be sharing the stage with any of the big headliners, but we are performing 2 shows daily with our band over the three days of the Festival: July 25-27, 2008
When asked about bringing Bobs & Lolo onboard, Pemberton Festival Kidzone producer, Kim Smythe said:
“After recently hiring Bobs & Lolo for the Vancouver Island International Children’s Festival, I couldn’t think of a more perfect act for this event. With their focus on connecting kids to nature and their interactive and energetic shows, they are an ideal fit for families at the Festival. It also doesn’t hurt that they are both born and raised on the west coast and that their award-winning songs are guaranteed to get kids of all ages singing and dancing along! The Festival is really trying to celebrate families and make this a memorable music event for children as well as adults. Bringing Bobs & Lolo to the stage is just one of the great features being offered for the kids.”
The Kidzone is FREE with admission to the Festival which is already FREE for kids 7 years and under. Other highlights in the Kidzone include performing artists Rick Scott, Norman Foote, Robin Chestnut, Vietnamese musical act Khac Chi and ongoing features by the Vancouver Circus School, facepainting by Magical Faces and other activity stations hosted by the Pemberton Arts Council.
Yip yip yippeeeeeeeee!!!

That’s very cool! I just told Amanda and she’s very disappointed that we can’t go…the fact that it’s just days before the due date of her brother or sister didn’t seem to be a good enough reason to her.
Hope you have fun!
Hello Bobs and Lolo…
