About Us
This merch store supports Shambhala Music Festival, an annual event not to be missed that boasts six uniquely themed stages. Our team aims to weave the best in up-and-coming electronic and live music from around the globe, as well as from our very talented backyard. What started as a 500-person gathering in 1998 has grown into the biggest temporary city in the West Kootenay region. Friends continue to bring friends who become crew, who grow into the extended “Farmily.”
When you purchase from our merch store, you are directly contributing to the future of our festival. Shambhala Music Festival is cutting edge in its production and we do not accept any corporate sponsorship. This allows the festival to retain a true reflection of the people on the dance floor and their vision of what the community looks like. You will not see one advertisement or corporate logo on the farm.
Ultimately, Shambhala Music Festival is a celebration of music, art, and life, steeped in one of the most beautiful festival venues in the world: the Salmo River Ranch. This 500-acre working farm is a year-round home to cows, horses, farm dogs, pigs, chickens and miniature donkeys. Gardens and hay fields are the normal business affairs, and the pristine Salmo River runs through it all.
