“My vision for Albatross Music Festival is to cater to Vancouverites who have two homes on either side of the Pacific Ocean." Said Sammi Wei, founder & CEO of MUBI Entertainment Management Group.

"Alb [the festival's mascot] represents the king of the seabirds, the albatross, who migrates back and forth between the east and west coast of the Pacific."
