Hicks on Sticks Canadian premiere announced!

Life / Film / Music / Skate

"In the summer of 1999, a team of four skateboarders and two bands embarked on a life changing tour. The goal was to inspire kids in rural areas by exposing them to skateboarding and music they wouldn’t otherwise have an opportunity to see in person. Everyone on board grew up in small towns themselves so the tour was affectionately dubbed “Hicks On Sticks”." 

We are stoked that "Hicks on Sticks" is holding its Canadian Premiere right here in Vancouver, "where the story of the underdog skateboarding tour began."!

Screenings will take place one night only:

Thursday, July 12th

Rio Theatre
1660 East Broadway
Vancouver, BC

7 pm screening - all ages
10 pm screening - licensed 19+

Tickets will be available at the door. Admission is $10.

Visit hicksonsticksmovie.com for more info on the film.... see ya there!!
