Q: We are going to the stampede this year specifically for the concerts that will be on the Coca Cola Stage to see Three Days Grace, GC, Mariana's Trench and other popular bands. Does anyone know the aproximate length of each concert for each day, for the main show or even with the openeing bands. Most start at 9pm, do they last an hour, 2... etc.
A: Generally speaking, the shows that feature the "bigger acts" last about 90 minutes. Last year, we saw Nelly Furtado and Our Lady Peace, and both were about that long. Great concerts, and where else can you see acts like that for the price of admission into the park??? $12.00 is a great deal for a concert!! Here's a tip though - arrive at least one hour before show time, even if it means sitting through a different act you aren't interested in. - EVERYONE will be standing throughout the entire show, so be prepared to stand the whole time, and if you're short, make sure you secure a spot right beside the log-style fence to the side of the stage... that way you can prop yourself up on it so you get a better view. Have a great time, and maybe we'll see you there!!!
