With 30 EDM acts performing and 70,000 people at Downsview Park over the 2 days this past Civic holiday weekend, headliners included Above & Beyond, Kaskade, Dada Life, and Steve Angello. Deadmau5 ended the festivities with his grand finale performance.
Facts I learned at VELD:
- People are super friendly at VELD.
- Unicorns do exist and they are damn ugly.
- TTC workers are offended by blow up dolls.
- Steve Aoki knows how to work a crowd including throwing cake at them.
- You can stand out from the thousands of people in attendance if you don’t wear neon.
