Sunshine Daydream Festival - Spring Event

Sunshine Daydream Festival - Apr 12, 2008
As a way to welcome in the spring season, Killington will host the 12th Annual Sunshine Daydream Festival, a tribute to the Grateful Dead. Jerry-followers as well as those who simply enjoy soulful music will find an all-day party plus classic New England spring skiing and riding. Not only is this a chance for guests to get those old tie-dyes and Birkenstocks out of the closet but its also an opportunity to soak up the spring sun and play in the spring snow. The 12th Annual Sunshine Daydream Festival will feature bands playing Grateful Dead covers during the day. Whether on or off the snow, Deadheads and wanna-be`s will find activities for all ages. There will be a mini shakedown, drum circles and tie-dying. Festivities will be held at the K-1 Lodge from 11a.m. until 5 p.m. The event is free, and t-shirts will be available to purchase for tie-dying.

The Kind Buds will kick things off at noon. The acoustic duo plays mellow versions of the Grateful Dead classics. The headliner for this event is Playin’ Dead, a favorite from the past few years. This year Playin’ Dead will play two 90 minute sets to get you up on your feet and dancin’.
