Shake The Lake action sports and music festival will feature some seriously talented bands next month!
In addition to the Family Fun Zone, skateboard and BMX competitions, exhibitor arena and other attractions; quality musical entertainment is a staple of Shake The Lake.
This year’s talent will include bands like “Se7ven Sided”, which is playing alongside the massively popular band “Default” this July! They will compliment “Junkyard Poets” which has recently completed a stadium tour with long time successful band “Newsboys”.
Friday’s music will include “ForeverAndNever” which is to be featured on Much Music’s popular “DISBAND” TV program this fall!
The line up Saturday will include “Zerbin” which recently played the “YC” festival in Edmonton, toured through Europe, and played the Red Carpet in New York for the premier of the movie ”Teenage Dirtbag”. 
The weekend will also feature acoustic singer songwriters like Joal Kamps who has toured Holland and the United States, and local acts like Red Deer’s Ska rockers “Shotty Out!”.
With nearly 30 bands playing through August 13, 14 and 15, Shake The Lake has an artist that will please almost any musical taste.
Sylvan Lake’s Medican Multiplex and Railway Park Promenade will be rocking in just a few weeks! Shake The Lake is presented to you completely free of charge thanks to the generous support and sponsorship of community minded businesses and individuals from our area.
