I hope Art on the Lake will return to the rightful spot of Alta Lake next year. I talked to many, many people who were disappointed that it moved to Lost Lake this year. Only one person I talked to attended this year and said it was not even close to being the same experience and that it was poorly attended.
Alta Lake has always been the hub of lake festivals and experiences since the pioneer days. Access for everyone is so much easier, hence being very well attended from the very first one. For me and many others it was the highlight of summer in Whistler. I always made sure I was here for it and had nothing else booked.
With three main waterfront parks and the many houses along the lake it was a real connection of Whistlerites and visitors. And I’m sure the watercraft rental companies appreciated the extra business.
I hope the organizers will reconsider their decision and return to Alta Lake next year!
