Pemberton Festival Street Style

Festivalgoers beat the heat in style at this year’s Pembyfest

From July 15 to 19, 115,000 fans flooded Pemberton B.C. for the Pemberton Valley Music Festival, a five-day outdoor extravaganza featuring live entertainment from world-class artists in music (rock, hip-hop, indie, metal + more) and comedy.

As the mercury maxed out at over 35 degrees, festivalgoers favoured the less-is-more approach when deciding what to wear, and some managed to beat the heat while still staying on-trend. Here’s our look at nine standouts.
