A Must-See Concert for CU Students: Krewella on August 24

Are you a CU Boulder Student? If so, you’ve got quite the slate of events lined up for you by the University of Colorado Program Council this year. First and foremost? The 2013 Welcomefest concert on August 24 at Farrand Field.

This year, CU students can attend the Welcomefest concert for free. Krewella will be headlining the entertainment for the evening this year. The other detail that you need to know? The concert is ONLY for currently enrolled CU students. You’ll have to present a valid BuffOne card at the gate.

Now, what can you expect to find at this year’s Welcomefest to kick of the fall term? Here’s the scoop from the event’s Facebook page:

Krewella is an American EDM group comprised of two singers and a DJ, based out of Chicago, Illinois. Krewella are known for their high energy songs that will get any naysayers dancing. Fresh to the scene Krewella came out with their first EP in 2011, Play Hard. A few of Krewella’s most notable hits include “Alive”, “Killin it” and “Live for the Night”. Krewella’s single “Alive” topped the Billboard Dance Radio Airplay at #1 and The Billboard’s Hot 100 at #32. Headlining a variety of festivals including Ultra, Electric Daisy Carnival and Stereosonic.

Now, just a reminder that RSVPing to the Facebook page isn’t a guaranteed event entry. Be sure to visit the Facebook event page for tickets and exactly how to use your BuffOne card to get through the concert gates. But between now and then, gear yourself up for Welcomefest and kicking off another year as a student in Boulder — possibly one of the best towns ever to be a student in!
