Festival season had its official Canadian start this weekend, as the second annual Field Trip music festival hit Toronto with a series of cacophonous bangs. Run by indie label Arts & Crafts, the two-day festival brought together homegrown darlings and international favourites like Interpol, The Kills, Austra, Washed Out, Cvrches and The Constantines.

The one-day concert may be considered a mini music festival in comparison to its much larger companions (Coachella boasts over 75,000 attendees per day, for one), it felt real maxi complete with a hula hoop party, Norman Wong photo exhibit and tricked out food trucks. Many of A&C’s current and formerly-repped bands returned home to play at one of two stages, including Feist, Trust, Stars and 24 members of Broken Social Scene, who thrilled the crowd with their entire landmark You Forgot it in People album from beginning to end.
