NXNE – June 11 – 17, 2012 (Toronto)

NXNE is coming up fast and furious.  Tickets are decently priced at $250 for a Priority Pass.  Which includes:

 

Front-of-the-line priority access* to all NXNE club shows

• Access to all of the NXNE Film screenings
• Afternoon Access to all presentations / panels at NXNE Interactive Conference. (After 2pm)

The other price points for just as good but limited access to events range from $25 – $50 if you are on a budget but still want to catch some amazing bands.

 

Not only does NXNE do a good job when it comes to bringing the coolest of bands but I like that they mix up music, film and interactive elements to their roster over those hot Toronto June days.  A lil variety doesn’t hurt a girl.    Plus, let’s face it we do it better than SXSW.
