Center of Gravity kicks off tonight, and with it comes a number of things to be excited about.
For festival-goers, you can look forward to a stacked line up of EDM Titans, DJs and legendary hip-hop artists including all nine original members of the Wu-Tang Clan, ZEDD and French Montana.
In addition to the insane acts set to ignite the stage, a number of adrenaline pumping extreme sporting events will also highlight Kelowna’s hottest beach festival.
