k-os is returning to Vancouver for Virgin Festival BC

Our Lady Peace and Ben Harper & Relentless7 will headline the Virgin Festival when it returns to British Columbia this summer.

Sonic Youth, former Pulp frontman Jarvis Cocker, Mute Math, K-OS, Brody Dalle's new Spinnerette project, Plants And Animals, De La Soul, Gomez, Future Of The Left and Awesome Color, who are signed to Sonic Youth singer/guitarist Thurston Moore's Ecstatic Peace label, will also play the two-day festival that will be held July 25 and 26 at Vancouver's Deer Lake Park. Additional acts will be announced shortly.

Tickets to the all-ages event go on sale on Monday at noon PST through Ticketmaster and Future Shop. Day passes will run you $72.50, while weekend passes will cost $135. A VIP weekend pass, which will get you front-of-the-line access, a $20 merch voucher and access to the Louder Lounge, will cost you $300.

The Virgin Festival was last held in Vancouver in 2007. It was to be held in the city last year as well, but was cancelled.

Lineups for Virgin Festivals in Montreal and Nova Scotia have already been announced, and organizers will announce who will play Alberta and Ontario versions of the festival (which we bet will be held in Calgary and Toronto) shortly.
