Foundation House Music Gatherings are EDM concerts and music festivals featuring electronic dance music. They take place at different venues in Vancouver.
Last year Foundation 10.0, 11.0 and 12.0 were at the PNE in May, Holland Park in July and the Vancouver Convention Centre in October. Foundation 13.0 happens at the PNE in May 2025.
Foundation Music Festivals & EDM Concerts
The Foundation series of events began in February of 2023. After hosting a successful first event at the PNE Forum, several other house music gatherings took place at multiple locations throughout the rest of last year. The series continues with more events in 2024, including Foundation 11.0 in July and Foundation 12.0 in October.
All of the “music gatherings” are adult-only events, so for people ages 19+. In addition to multiple headliners and DJs at each event, there are also food trucks and a bar serving alcoholic beverages. The events are full of music. They make for fun dancing and socializing.
The organizers behind the Foundation events are Blueprint and Live Nation. They are the same companies behind FVDED in the Park in the summer and the Contact Winter Music Festival in late December.
Foundation 11.0 in Surrey
Foundation 11.0 takes place on Saturday, July 6th in 2024. This event is different from usual, as it’s held on one of multiple stages at the annual FVDED in the Park event. The popular festival happens on both July 5th and 6th at Holland Park, located at 13428 Old Yale Road in Surrey.
Taking over the Northwest Stage on the second day of FVDED in the Park, Foundation 11.0 features Chris Lake, Elderbrook, Wax Motif, Aluna, Yung Singh, Coco & Breezy, Karsten Sollors, Reezy and Yurie. Headliners of the FVDED in the Park event include Swedish House Mafia, deadmau5, Kaskade and more.
