Whistler Village
Condos For Rent During The TELUS World Ski Snowboard
Festival
 You
are invited to the biggest annual celebration of music,
arts, sports & culture on the planet. The
defining celebration of Whistler, the TELUS World Ski
and Snowboard Festival is a 10 day and night showcase
of the latest progressions in the skiing and snowboarding
world, where even the arts events are packed full of
adrenaline. Combining Canada’s largest free outdoor
concert series with career-making showdowns of action
sports and lifestyle fashion, photography and film,
the best spring snow conditions, and burn-the-candle
nightlife, it’s a celebration of everything that’s
core to mountain culture.
In art, in the practice of a sport, in life, every
action generates a reaction. TWSSF’s newest programming
for 2009 responds to an evolving culture, and invites
interaction – propulsion, revolution, a change
in momentum, a truthful reaction, the surrender to impulse…
Because when we let editing and suppression and fear
of consequences fall away, we are left riding the fat
tongue of the moment into brilliance.
In 14 years, the TELUS Festival has become North America’s
largest annual snow sports and music celebration, spawning
imitators around the world, and earning the tag, Mother
of All End of Season Parties.
The best things in life are still free. Zune Concert
Series line-up promises 10 days of pilgrim-worthy free
outdoor concerts, featuring Ozomatli, Ten Second Epic,
The Stills, Metric, and DJ Ztrip.
 Grenade
Games lobs into town. Snowboarding’s infamous
end of season party is by the riders, for the riders.
Giving Canadians the chance to become Grenadians for
the first time in its history, the Grenade Games’
line-up includes a Poker Run, dual slalom moguls course,
pipe and slopestyle comp, and entices legends of snowboarding
out of retirement to ride alongside current pros and
up-and-comers.
Discover tomorrow’s artistic superstars. Debuting
at this year’s Festival is the mutant sibling
of the Pro Photographer Showdown, the ThreePointOh Multimedia
Challenge. Plus, State of the Art, the Canada-wide Designer
Search and Expose, and the new Chef Challenge.
Skate comes to the party. The new Festival opener,
Skate & Deploy, followed by the Skate of the Art
Opening party offers the perfect segue from winter to
spring for fans of flow.
Graphic mastery gains momentum. Enter year four of
the open crowd-sourcing collaboration that introduces
graphic design talent to snowboards as canvass. Masterpiece
in Motion entries are due March 1.
Satisfy yourself that there’s substance to the
hype. Book off April 17 -26 2009, for the 14th annual
TELUS Festival.
