Get Together Festival

Since 2013, the Get Together festival — a partnership between Vancouver, British Columbia party promoters Blueprint and Live Nation — has been giving EDM fans in Western Canada good reason to bust out of hibernation mode and shake off woes of the cold Winter season on the dance floor. The inaugural edition was held at Vancouver's Pacific Coliseum with a bill headlined by Dutch electro-house DJ Hardwell and British beatmakers Above & Beyond, and the event's success would spawn an annual local tradition held each Family Day weekend (the holiday observed in select Canadian provinces in mid-February), attracting such notable names as U.K. trance-master Gareth Emery, Aussie electro producer Will Sparks, and Dutch deity Armin van Buuren. In December 2014, an offshoot Get Together festival was introduced in Edmonton, Alberta, scheduled smack-dab in that traditional Boxing Week dead zone between Christmas and New Year's Eve; headlined by Russian EDM icon Zedd. The Edmonton iteration of Get Together is now an annual two-day blowout, with some 6,000 revelers taking over the Shaw Centre in the last week of December. The 2018 lineup is topped by American dancehall/pop polymath Diplo, who's coming off another banner year that saw him release the celeb-stacked ‘California' EP, a spiritual sequel of sorts to his moody 2004 album ‘Florida' that likewise showcased the DJ/producer's more introspective side (with the help of special guests like Santigold, DRAM, and Lil Yachty). His subsequent collaboration with Ellie Goulding and Swae Lee on the single "Close to Me" shows he can still drop a tropically tinged pop banger whenever the mood strikes. At Get Together, Diplo shares the bill with American bass bomber Illenium, British trap technician TroyBoi, and Australian DJ/singer/producer triple-threat Alison Wonderland, among others. And with a lineup like that, you'll probably need to stay in on New Year's Eve just to recover.

    I wish I knew more info before the event

    by Guest on 2022-12-31Edmonton EXPO Centre - Edmonton

    I wish I knew more info while buying the ticket 3 months ahead before the show date. I didn’t know that Above and Beyond perform only on the second day and first day it was all dupstep DJs that I don’t like. It was a big disappointment for me because I had to drive from Calgary and book 2 days in hotel when I could actually book one night and save money and time for myself. But Above and Beyond were super great and improved all expectations!

    Get Together 2022

    by Regular Rave Goer on 2022-12-31Edmonton EXPO Centre - Edmonton

    I loved the artists from Day One. Dubstep, trap, and bass have a very special place in my heart. Day Two was a lot of house music, but I love Matroda and Moores Kismet and they both threw down hard! I loved seeing the Harm Reduction tent, it is so important to have one at all events, big or small. Being able to bring in and fill up my hydro-pack was also a huge perk! I love having hands-free water :) However, I do have some not-so-positive comments. I would have loved, loved, loved more areas to sit down and still see the stage!! The bleachers were small and got full very quickly! A booth for artist merch would have been nice. Especially since some of the artists have amazing merch and are not from Canada, but I understand why they did not have this. Having two stages again. I used to go when g2g was at the Shaw and having two options of different genres of music to go and dance to was amazing. Obviously, there is a lot of behind-the-scenes stuff that goes on that we as patrons are not privy to and covid, weather, and artist availability play a part as well. But I do think the experience of g2g would have been better with another stage to roam to if you were not fully enjoying the music of the other. All that being said. I did have a great time, made some new friends, and danced my ass off!! So thank you for being involved in that creating experience!! :)

    Overall really pleased

    by Kalala on 2022-12-30Edmonton EXPO Centre - Edmonton

    Being completely honest, if you flipped the days, had soft house and trance the first day and heavy the second, people would get less sick. No one is ready for how heavy the first day is and some don’t like how slow the second day is. It’s an idea!!

    Get what you pay for! Sound could be better

    by ErikST on 2022-12-30Edmonton EXPO Centre - Edmonton

    Very spacious for an indoor rave however the sounds wasn’t quite there. It was loud only if you were really close to the stage, if you went for drinks you couldn’t hear the music anymore. which is weird considering it’s in the same room/building. I think they should reconsider the layout for the vip and improve on sound next time! Overall pretty good experience 3/5

    Absolute garbage sound quality

    by M on 2022-12-30Edmonton EXPO Centre - Edmonton

    For having a D&B rig, the sound was garbage and way below what would be considered acceptable standards.
