Mario Bros. Movie

 

For the first time, the iconic global entertainment brands Illumination and Nintendo join forces to create The Super Mario Bros. Movie, a new, big-screen adventure starring one of pop culture's most prominent plumbers of the past four decades. Based on the world of Nintendo's Mario games, the film invites audiences into a vibrant, thrilling new universe unlike any created before in an action-packed, exuberant cinematic comedy event.

While working underground to fix a water main, Brooklyn plumbers Mario (Chris Pratt; Jurassic World and The LEGO Movie franchises) and brother Luigi (Charlie Day; It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia) are transported down a mysterious pipe and wander into a magical new world. But when the brothers are separated, Mario embarks on an epic quest to find Luigi. With the assistance of a Mushroom Kingdom resident Toad (Keegan-Michael Key; The Lion King) and some training from the strong-willed ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom, Princess Peach (Anya Taylor-Joy;The Queen's Gambit), Mario taps into his own power.

Porchfest

 

  
                 
  

When is PorchFest Vulcan?

Saturday, June 24th  1 PM - 8 PM.  

The schedule will be released a few days before the event because there are always changes as the event nears and we wouldn't want you walking around Vulcan with the wrong information. A few weeks before the event we should be able to publish bands and porches

Where does it take place?

Vulcan, Alberta around the Central hub being the Pool Park. Our event is spread across the entire neighborhood.

   
 

How does it work?

Porchfest is much more an day of coordinated yard performances than it is a conventional festival. There's no real boss, no specific enclosed or protected area, and everything you see, eat, or experience exists only because someone decided to step up and make it happen. All of our day-of operations and oversight gets delegated to our volunteering neighbors and guests, making every porch host, performer, vendor and attendee a de facto co-creator and real-time manager of the event. The organizing committee, such that it is, exists only to manage basic front-end logistics, coordinate performances, and promote the day.

For attendees, all normal rules of law and order apply and, just like any other day, everyone remains responsible for their own behavior and welfare when moving from yard to yard. Wander around, keep yourself safe, and watch out for others. Pretty simple.

 

   

 Will there be Food and Drink

We have arranged for Food Trucks to be located at the Hub of the event and if you follow the map provided you should pass by the food trucks a couple of time during the afternoon.

Why can’t I choose my time to host or perform?

The short answer is we’ve simply grown too big. Porchfest is an all-volunteer operation. Scheduling the performances across the neighborhood in balanced time slots, ensuring they don’t conflict with other performers nearby, and then connecting each performer with their respective host requires weeks of logistical.

Instead, we ask that all participants — hosts and performers alike — simply clear their calendars for the afternoon and submit themselves to the benevolent forces of the greater good. Fully embodying, as we all seek to do, the spirit of radical generosity and good will that’s come to define what Porchfest is all about.

 

Why just one, 45 minute performance per porch?

There are certainly logistical benefits but, for the most part, it's because Porchfest is as much a community-building endeavor as it is a celebration of music so getting people out and about is key. When people camp out all day at any one address it works against the underlying point of the event, which is a shifting, ever-evolving carnival of interactions and experiences. Not a collection of distinct, day-long yard parties.
