Ticket pre-orders open for Dawson Creek’s first Extreme Mudfest

DAWSON CREEK, B.C. — Ticket pre-orders are now available for the upcoming Extreme Mudfest event.

The three-day festival, which has run successfully in Cold Lake, Alberta for several years, is set to be held in Dawson Creek for the first time from August 30th to September 2nd.

The event will feature a wide array of musical performances as well as races aboard trucks, side-by-sides, ATVs and other offroad vehicles, alongside a “mud run” foot race raising money for charity.

“Attendees can expect a jam-packed schedule featuring a dynamic lineup of rock and country music concerts, alongside an array of motorsport spectacles guaranteed to get hearts racing and mud flying,” an announcement from Extreme Mudfest Producer Billie Jo Aasen reads.

Mudfest has been controversial within the community, with some residents raising concerns regarding noise and water use at a Peace River Regional District (PRRD) meeting in April.

The PRRD ultimately voted in favor of issuing the organizers a permit to host Extreme Mudfest at 187 Riverside Road in Pouce Coupe for the next three years at a later meeting.

Details regarding the lineup of musicians performing, the exact location where the races and performances are taking place, and a full event schedule will be announced over the coming weeks.
