Newbury, NH (Dec. 20, 2010) — EVOL Burritos in partnership with Mount Sunapee Resort, Okemo Mountain Resort, Crested Butte Resort, Nordica, Reverb and the Bud Light Concert Series announce the launch of a new concert and lifestyle event called FestEVOL (pronounced: Fest-ee-vuhl). In its inaugural year, FestEVOL is bringing O.A.R., DJ Logic and the Pete Kilpatrick Band to three of the nation’s best ski resorts for a unique lifestyle experience combining mountain sports, live music, innovative natural brands and a sustainably focused “eco village” to help keep the event green.
FestEVOL weekend at Mount Sunapee will be headlined on Saturday, April 2, 2011 by an O.A.R. concert presented by the Bud Light Concert Series. DJ Logic and the Pete Kilpatrick Band will open. The stage, spectator and refreshment area will be under a huge performance tent. Sunday, April 3, 2011 Mount Sunapee will host the 13th Annual Slush Cup where participants attempt to ski or snowboard across a 90-foot man-made pond.
As part of the IZSTYLE Winter Tour each FestEVOL event will feature the Reverb Eco Village. This interactive village, set up Saturday and Sunday, includes local, regional and national environmental non-profit groups alongside alternative energy and transportation exhibits. The Eco Village also features all natural/organic food sampling and ski/snowboard equipment demos with Nordica and Burton Snowboards.
“FestEVOL is a rare opportunity to experience a top tier band like O.A.R. in an extremely intimate and picturesque setting” said Jon Jennings, EVOL Burritos director of communications and FestEVOL spokesman. “FestEVOL was built out of a relationship and is a collaboration of like-minded brands that want to bring friends and family together with the activities and causes most important to them.”
FestEVOL will kick off at Okemo Mountain, VT on March 19, 2011. From there it will travel to Crested Butte Resort, CO on March 26, 2011 and wrap up at Mount Sunapee, NH on April 2-3, 2011
