How do Couch Fest concerts  work?

Artists receive 100% of profits and donations from Couch Fest!

Once you buy your individual tickets or festival pass, you'll receive an email confirmation, with the links to the livestream(s). 

Couch Fest will happen on Zoom videoconferencing. Each concert happens in a different "room", so you'll use different links for each show.

We want to create that intimate concert vibe that Gabriolans know and love from live events. A concert host will be on-hand to introduce the musicians and host a short post-show with the performers.

We encourage you to make an event of it! Put a blanket out on the lawn, connect some good speakers, order takeout from one of great Gabriola restaurants, and serve up some special drinks.

We also ask you to not share the links with others who haven't bought a ticket.

Why Couch Fest?

Couch Fest is an initiative of the Gabriola Chamber of Commerce, supported by Gabriola Songs, to help support artists who have lost work due to COVID-19. We recognize how important performers are to our island culture and economy.
