Concert!

Hello! two of my favourite bands just announced a concert/festival in your town in July. I'm from BC (metro van) but I'd love to come visit and enjoy!

In your opinion, what's the best+cheapest way to get to your town? Drive all the way? Drive partial, fly the rest? Bus/train??? I looked up flight prices from Abbotsford and they seem... pretty pricey. but the cost of gas + 16h drive is a lot too. I really want to make this work!

Has anyone here made the trek out to Van? how did it go?
