Vancouver Is Awesome, and we are dedicated to everything that makes it that way.

If you want to read ugly, bad news about this beautiful city of ours, you’re going to have to look to traditional media and other blogs; V.I.A. promotes everything that makes our city awesome, from old to new and everything inbetween. We’re like the human interest piece on the news… only different.

2009 IS ON IT’S WAY OUT…

POSTED December 16, 2009 BY Bob Kronbauer

Instead of doing a “BEST POSTS of 2009″ feature I’ve decided to instead take a look back on all of the events and other things that we presented and co-sponsored over the past year!

From concerts to DJ nights to street hockey tourneys to book launches to online comedy shows to art shows, the images you see below are all of the posters and fliers for stuff that we officially partnered on helping to promote, or that we actually organized ourselves from start to finish. There are countless others that we helped by posting and/or reporting about on the site, these are just the few that we actually had something to do with in an official capacity:

In no particular order we co-sponsored CreativeRoom’s Gingerbread auction, Night Vision in Strathcona Park, Mint Records Christmas Party, Mental Beast, Here Is Now art show, Vincent Park Year One party, Back and Forth Book Launch at Lucky’s Comics, The Good Life at Fortune, Happy Ending Fridays at Fortune, Tens Video Premiere, Easy Now at the Astoria, Bobbito Garcia at Experience Saturdays, DJ Neil Armstrong, Concrete Magazine Photo Annual release party, Color Magazine 7.2 release party, Snoop Dogg Blazed and Confused, Hockey Night In Canada Presents Play On!, the Creativemix conference, Skull Skates’ Nappy Dugout, Buraka Som Sistema at the Biltmore, Make It at the Roundhouse, Still Trippin Tour, No Gold release party, Chromeo at Gossip, Clipse at Richards, the IE Sneaker Drive and of course the Live Block Party!

Events that we produced ourselves included Officially Awesome, Smile On Your Brother charity art show at Livestock, the Underground Invitational, Flickn Awesome at Fortune, the East Van Skate Or Die 80′s Jam and the Drawing On Vancouver art show at Walrus.

Thanks to everybody who came out to support, and here’s to many more in 2010! We’ve got a lot brewing for you in the coming year.
