The A&W Funtastic Music Festival continues to get better with age, and this year the festival will celebrate its 29th birthday June 28-July 1, 2013.

The A&W Funtastic Music Festival is a throwback with its open air festival seating (standing) for all general admission ticket holders. That means everyone at Funtastic has equal opportunity to get up to the front of the stage or just hang back to get the full festival effect.

General public tickets are on sale at Vernon A&W Restaurants now.  The north and mall locations accept debit; the Fruit Union location does not and you will need to pay cash for the music passes. Friday, Saturday or Sunday tickets are $25 each per day; special 3-day weekend pass is $50. Canada Day, July 1st is $30 each for early bird pricing ( to June 20th) or $40 each after June 21st.

Canada's Greatest Slo-Pitch Tournament & Music Festival

Each year the Funtastic Sports Society hosts Canada's largest slo-pitch tournament and music festival. As a non-profit organization, all funds raised by Funtastic are used to support sport and recreation in the community. 

 

About Us

Since 1985, the Vernon and District Funtastic Sports Society has been working to help make our community a great best place to live, learn, work and play. As a result of hosting the annual fundraiser- Funtastic, the society has been able to contribute more than $1.5 million back to the community.

We are dedicated to enhancing the quality of life of residents by advocating for active lifestyles, the opportunity to enjoy all sports, partnering with and funding community initiatives and fostering athletic participation.

We don't do this alone. While we are a non-profit BC registered organization, we do not receive any government funding. Instead we host an annual fundraiser- Canada's largest slo-pitch tournament and music festival and we're supported by an amazing group of individuals - our 525 volunteers. Each year the Funtastic event brings approximately $4.5 million in direct economic benefit to the local business community.

We thank our many partners including 120 local business sponsors, local government agencies and local community groups who help us each year host the Funtastic Sport & Music Festival.

  Vision Statement - Building a Better Community Through Sport

  Value Statement- Respect, Integrity, Leadership, Teamwork and Commitment

Attention Vendors.

The Funtastic Slo-Pitch & Music Festival application for vendors is now closed. Funtastic has a limited number of vendor vacancies each year. Many of our vendors return year after year causing us to have a very low turnover rate. Please contact the office if you would like more information or questions answered on how you can become a vendor in 2014.

Volunteers... Want to volunteer? Come on board and join us in hosting the biggest sports event in the Okanagan valley.
