| Another Record-Breaking Year for Shambhala Music Festival: 2027 Tickets Sold Out In Mere Hours |
| It’s official: the 28th Annual Shambhala Music Festival is completely sold out for 2027. Demand surged from the start, with 50% of total tickets claimed on-site by 2026 festival attendees before online sales even launched. Once the remaining tickets dropped on Tuesday, people moved fast, snatching up every available ticket within mere hours of the launch.“To sell out so quickly is a remarkable milestone, but what means the most is the community behind it: from those returning year after year to those joining us for the first time. Shambhala has always been shaped by the people who come together on the dance floor, and we’ll never take your trust and support for granted. Our team is already putting that same care and dedication into making 2027 a year to remember. We can’t wait to welcome you home.” Neil MacLeod CEO of Shambhala Music Festival |

| About Shambhala Music Festival Shambhala began in 1998 as a grassroots gathering of 500 people on founder Jimmy Bundschuh’s family-run farm in Salmo, British Columbia. They have challenged the traditional festival model by not accepting any corporate sponsorship andalcohol sales. They also have an industry-leading approach to harm reduction. Today, Shambhala Music Festival is still Canada’s longest-running electronic dance music festival after 27 years of operation. The independently run music festival takes place annually. Each year, festival-goers have the chance to experience the best of what nature has to offer throughout four blissful days while witnessing hundreds of world-class artists across six unique stages, each curated and run by their own stage directors. Billboard has called it, ‘the northern stronghold of the West Coast transformational festival circuit.’ Rolling Stone has listed it among ‘the seven most transformational music festivals on earth.’ DJ Mag named it the ‘Best Music Festival in North America’ in 2019 and 2022. CBC has called it, ‘an enduring piece of the live music scene in British Columbia.’Learn More Event AssetsPress Kit | 2026 AftermovieStay Connected |
