ESTEVAN - SiriusXM and Live Nation have announced dates, locations, and ticket details for the upcoming SiriusXM Music Town concerts in four communities across Canada, including Estevan.
The Estevan concert will take place on Sept. 24 at Affinity Place, with award-winning Canadian country music singer Dallas Smith the featured act.
According to a news release from SiriusXM, on Aug. 19 at 9 a.m. local time, a limited amount of free tickets will be available to claim through musictown.siriusxm.ca. The number of tickets available is based on venue capacity.
Each SiriusXM Music Town event will engage local vendors, businesses and community groups, to help support the community even further.
“When we set out to find the first SiriusXM Music Towns, we knew Canadians would be excited by the opportunity to bring amazing Canadian artists to their doorstep, but the passion and enthusiasm has exceeded all our expectations,” said Paul Cunningham, senior vice-president of sales and marketing with SiriusXM Canada.
“As we continue to plan local events, we’re looking forward to engaging with the winning communities and we have some surprises in the works.”
Hundreds of communities entered to be named a MusicTown earlier this year. Estevan was one of four communities – along with Nanaimo, B.C., Sylvan Lake, Alta., and Lloydminster – to be named a finalist for Western Canada.
Even though Estevan was the smallest of the four communities, it won thanks to the tremendous support from the public to bring the concert here.
The Mercury will have more details as they become available.
