Lavigne sets fall concert date at downtown arena
Avril Lavigne will mark 25 years as a performing artist with a worldwide tour that stops at Winnipeg’s Canada Life Centre on Sept. 14.
Tickets go on sale Friday at 10 a.m. at ticketmaster.ca, however there are several presales scheduled to begin as early as today. Prices weren’t announced.
Lavigne’s performing career started with a bang in 1999, performing alongside Shania Twain in Ottawa after winning a radio-station contest. Lavigne’s solo career took off in 2002 with the hits Complicated and Sk8er Boi, two pop-punk anthems that will be a big part of her greatest-hits tour in 2024.
Power-pop groups Simple Plan and Girlfriends are also on the bill.
Crockett, the Man from Waco, plays the Burt in May
One of the headliners from the 2023 Winnipeg Folk Festival is ready for a return visit to the city.
Country singer Charley Crockett has set a May 27 date at the Burton Cummings Theatre for a concert that will help unveil a new album $10 Cowboy, which comes out April 26.
Tickets go on sale Friday at 10 a.m. at ticketmaster.ca, however there are presales scheduled for Thursday as well. Prices weren’t announced.
The Texas troubadour, who once hitchhiked and jumped trains to get to gigs, became an outlaw-country success story in 2022 and ‘23, owing to the album The Man From Waco. He performed the title track to $10 Cowboy Monday night on the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
