Come From Away

Russell Howard at MacEwan Hall

Russell Howard

One of Britain's most successful young comedians will once again make you squirm with his inimitably and sometimes rude yet always springy, cheerful comedy. With his impish personality and his boy-next-door smile, he creates joy from everyday observations and is never afraid to poke fun at the news, and those who make it. Don't miss the chance to see him live!

Avril Lavigne at Scotiabank Saddledome

Avril Lavigne

Sam Hunt at Scotiabank Saddledome

Sam Hunt

Considering his debut album Montevallo spawned a slew of hits including 'Leave A Night On', 'Take Your Time' and 'Break Up in a Small Town', it's surprising that college quarter-back turned country-pop star Sam Hunt has taken six years to release a follow-up. But good things take time, and the singer songwriter's sophomore effort Southside has well been worth the wait. Don't miss the crooner when he hits the road.

Bob The Drag Queen at MacEwan Hall

Bob The Drag Queen

RuPaul's Drag Race Season eight winner Bob the Drag Queen takes to the road serving up the comedy and acting realness that saw her snatch the crown from the other queens of the season. Self-described as "hilarious, beautiful, talented... and humble," this goddess of humor honed her talents in the big apple, performing stand-up and sketch comedy for over 10 years.

Explosions In The Sky at The Palace Theatre

Explosions In The Sky

Explosions In The Sky are heading on their first tour since 2020! With a reputation for a scathingly intense live performance and a quickly sold-out CD-R demo 'How Strange, Innocence', which was later reissued in 2005, Explosions in the Sky was touted early on in their career as the next phenomenon in moody and dynamic instrumental indie rock a la Mogwai and Godspeed You Black Emperor!

Social Distortion at MacEwan Hall

Social Distortion

Hailed as the godfathers of Punk, Social Distortion have spent their four-decade career playing by their own rules to create a distinct brand of West Coast Punk Rock with a Rockabilly edge. While the band has seen multiple line-up changes, lead vocalist and guitarist Mike Ness has remained a constant leader, overseeing the release of seven studio albums and numerous world tours.

Childish Gambino at Scotiabank Saddledome

Childish Gambino

Nothing 'Feels Like Summer' more than seeing Childish Gambino live on his brand-new world tour! Titled 'The New World Tour,' this massive outing will mark the actor, writer, comedian, musician, and rapper's first tour since 2019. Not only that, but Gambino has reimagined his 2020 album, '3.15.20,' and named it 'Atavista.' Don't miss your chance to see the Grammy-winning artist, with support from Amaarae and Willow!

Ocie Elliott at Jack Singer Concert Hall
