Cool Fest

COOL FEST is a cool festival of music, art and other sensory delights that encourages healthy heavy partying and intuitive artistic exploration. Cool Fest is about connecting different artistic communities and putting disparate creative people alongside each other to share their vision and discover new approaches and ideas, in a bilingual space. Conceived in 2007 by Blake Hargreaves with Xarah Dion, and the Ample Collective at La Brique, Blake has presented Cool Fest every year since in Montréal and other cities. Cool Fest is numbered by year. The first Cool Fest, Cool Fest 7, was in 2007.
