Hospitality Suite

The 2008 Leonard Cohen Nights Festival is happy to present the first ever 24hr hospitality suite!

New for both the local Edmonton festival and the biennial fan events, the hospitality suite will be available from 2pm Wednesday July 23rd until noon Monday July 28th. It will be on the main floor of the Westin Hotel (10135 100th Street), in the heart of downtown Edmonton.

The suite will have alcohol and food service, but the main focus will be fan activities. Serving as a "Home Base" for all participants and activities, hospitality will be your source for registration, schedules, maps, activity information and so on.

Most of the small concerts and activities will be based around the suite as well. All walking tours will start and end at the Westin. The open mike performances as well as the post-concert parties friday and saturday night will get the Westin rocking all weekend long. Check out the Activities section of this site for details on everything from Collage Parties to academic talks.

Even if you plan on partying with other fans at a separate venue during the week, make sure to stop in for a few activities or a quick bite -- otherwise, you run the risk of "You should have been there" stories for the next two years....

[The festival pass gives you access to all the public concerts, as well as all the private events held at the Westin]
