"We're very excited to announce this year's line up of Spring Fever festivities," said Kieran Cain, Breck's director of marketing. "Last year's inaugural season of the festival set the bar high for providing the best spring party in the Rocky Mountains for our guests, and we're looking forward to taking our month-long celebration to an entirely new level this year to coincide with this Breck 50th Anniversary Season."
The Bud Light Live Concert Series brings the party to Breck with six days of live acts on Saturday and Sunday afternoons on a specially-constructed stage at the base of Peak 8.
The 2012 music line up with be announced soon; last year's acts included Ozomatli, The Wailers, moe, DeVotchKa and the Flobots.
