If you think the Vancouver Winter Olympics are just for sports fans, think again. Culture vultures will have plenty of options during Cultural Olympiad 2010, a multi-disciplinary arts festival showcasing works of music, visual arts, film, theatre, dance and new media from Canadian and international artists. The festival kicks off 22 January (a full three weeks before the start of the 2010 Olympic Winter Games), and continues for 60 days through both the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games, concluding on 21 March (the final day of the 2010 Paralympic Winter Games).

Cultural Olympiad 2010 features more than 600 ticketed and free performances taking place in 60 venues across Metro Vancouver and the Sea to Sky corridor. Some of the major musical acts include Feist, Martha Wainwright, Blue Rodeo, and Stars.
