“Sled Island is Stampede breakfast for Calgary Culture. With so much happening, it was hard to choose. I never lost my appetite.”

The second annual Sled Island snuck in right before the Stampede to ignite Calgary’s core with culture. They went big this year by plugging art, comedy, film and music installments into seemingly every central haunt. But the luster of this year’s festival was at Mewata Field where two giant stages featured the likes of Tegan and Sarah, Broken Social Scene, The Wire, Of Montreal, Mogwai along side some of the freshest local acts. Here is some of what atbt saw in living colour.
