Delays in construction have resulted in a change of venue for the Brent Butt concert scheduled for October 15.
The concert will now be held in the Weyburn Comprehensive Cafetorium.
Weyburn Concert Series is looking forward to an exciting new season featuring a variety of performers that will appeal to a wide audience.
Due to the change of location, tickets for the Brent Butt concert have almost sold out.
