With the winter season in full force here in North America, we’re grateful to have partners like Arc’teryx to keep us shielded from the elements. And to make the short days more bearable, we’ve paired up with them for some outdoor winter shows, which we’re calling Delight in the Detour.
When you attend a Delight in the Detour show with Arc’teryx and Sofar, you’ll take home an insulated Atom Hoody, so you can chill without the chill. The Atom Hoody is a longstanding Arc’teryx fan favorite; just check out how snug everyone looks at a recent Sofar + Arc’teryx show in Chicago:
At this time of year, when there’s more night than there is day, staying inside with a cup of tea and a movie can be a cozy respite from the cold, waiting for winter to pass. But Arc’teryx is here to help make even those frigid days unforgettable. We all have a choice—do we take what we’re given, or create something better? It’s all part of No Wasted Days™, the Arc’teryx initiative to encourage people to take the path less travelled.
Here are some ways Sofar and Arc’teryx can keep you warm.
Sofar Brings the Vibes, Arc’teryx Brings the Layers
Sofar shows are unique. With a surprise lineup, intimate venues, and an incredible atmosphere, you can be swept away in an evening of genuine connection with like-minded music fans and outdoor enthusiasts.
And Arc’teryx gear is unique too – uniquely high-quality. Their gear is reliable, and something you can depend on year after year to enjoy the outdoors, whether it’s your next Sofar concert under the stars or on a hike with friends.
Live Music Meets the Outdoors
Arc’teryx is synonymous with adventure and the outdoors, and they bring a distinctive flavor to Sofar Sounds’ signature live shows. The collaboration integrates music with the ethos of an outdoor lifestyle, creating an experience that resonates with those who appreciate both the thrill
of discovering new landscapes and new soundscapes.
Real Connection
The space created by our collaboration with Arc’teryx provides a unique opportunity for artists to connect with fans in an intimate way, where everyone can relax and feel the warmth of the music and some Arc’teryx jackets.
But don’t take it from us. Here’s what singer-songwriter Drew Erwin had to say after playing a Delight in the Detour show in Chicago:
“Any time I get to do a show with Sofar, it’s always a pleasure. In a world of online likes and shares online, opportunities to grow and make real connections with people at these shows feels so refreshing. It always reminds me of why I make music in the first place.
I’m really grateful for Arc and the gear they supplied for everyone to make the experience that much more memorable. (I also probably would have froze during my set without them.)
10/10 evening in the Windy City!”
