The 4th Street Lilac Festival celebrates 25 years of FUN!

The 4th Street Festival Society is ramping up for the historic 25th annual Lilac Festival: Calgary’s largest free street event! Bringing together 500 vendors and community organizations, over 125,000 attendees, 200 volunteers and 50 performances by local and international artists, the festival continues to thrive in the vibrant city. The festival is ecstatic to announce car2go as a title sponsor for its 25th year. “We feel that car2go and the Lilac Festival make a great fit. We are excited for what this partnership will bring to our milestone year” said Event Producer, Jennifer Rempel. In addition to the newly inked title sponsor, Lilac Festival will be working with Green Event Services to provide a complete waste, recycling and composting program at this year’s event. The massive program features manned recycling stations, sorting stations and final reporting of quantities of diverted waste. The 25th annual Lilac Festival is on May 25th, 2014 and runs along 4th Street SW from 13th Avenue to Elbow Drive. Attendees are invited to enjoy the kick off parade at 10:00AM. The event is open to the public and free to attend until 6:00PM. More information can be found at Lilac Festival’s brand new website at www.lilacfestival.net, on Facebook and on twitter (@lilacfest).
