Igloofest 2010
Wednesday, December 2nd 2009
Words: Piknic Electronik
Put those masks and pills away – the antidote for this years' winter chills is in its 4th phase of development, and biting temperatures won't stop the throngs of winter lovers descending on Montreal.
Igloofest is launching a massive musical vaccination campaign for the last 3 weekends in January to help you "ice-scape" the pandemic! Thanks to participation from the Quays of the Old Port as well as Musique Plus and Solotech, a total of 9 vaccination clinics will be held January 14-16, 21-23 and 28-30 from 6pm to midnight at the Jacques-Cartier Quay at the Old Port of Montreal.
Combat the influenza of winter blues and come for your powerful "antibio-tuque" against the season's "frette". Igloofest knows how to vaccinate: each dose of fortified programming is administered by aspiring "oto-rhythmo-laryng-audiology" specialists and is guaranteed to spark a dancing delirium that will make you check all symptoms at the door and enter this contagious atmosphere risk-free!
On-site service points and the Espace Cocktail SAQ – a waiting room for quarantined patients set up in the Sleeman Light igloo village – will distribute spiked tonics pulled right from grandma's own recipe book. Caribou, mulled wine, caffeine boosts, and herbal infusions will all be waiting to comfort you!
