FVDED in the Park: A Decade of Dance in Surrey
Surrey is about to get louder and brighter as FVDED in the Park marks its tenth anniversary this July. What started as a small EDM night has exploded into one of Canada’s biggest electronic music festivals, and this year’s lineup is nothing short of legendary.
Star-Studded Lineup Lights Up Holland Park
On July 4 and 5, Holland Park transforms into a dance lover’s paradise. Headliners like Tiësto, Kaytranada, Zedd, and Disclosure will take the stage, joined by 60 artists—up from 48 last year. Over 30% of the performers are Canadian, shining a spotlight on homegrown talent and giving regional artists a chance to electrify the crowd.
From Humble Beginnings to Festival Fame
FVDED in the Park began in 2015 with just 10,000 fans. Now, nearly 27,500 people attend each day, turning Surrey into a summer hotspot. The festival’s impact goes beyond the music, too. Last year alone, FVDED generated an impressive $8.2 million for the local economy.
Why Surrey? The City That Dances
Festival creator Alvaro Prol says Surrey was the perfect fit. With easy SkyTrain access and a city eager to support youth events, FVDED quickly became a must-attend celebration. The move paid off, attracting fans and artists from across North America who now see Surrey as a top destination for music and fun.
Challenges and Triumphs: Booking the Best
Bringing world-class talent to Surrey isn’t always easy, especially with fierce competition and currency challenges. Yet, FVDED consistently delivers epic lineups, proving that dance music is more popular—and creative—than ever.
Looking Ahead: The Beat Goes On
Dance music has become the soundtrack of a new generation, filling clubs, restaurants, and even shopping centers. As rock fades, FVDED in the Park continues to push boundaries, promising even more variety and excitement in the years to come.
