Popular country-rock band Blue Rodeo and celebrated Cape Breton fiddler Natalie MacMaster will perform live at Brampton’s Rose Theatre for a special concert in support of William Osler Health System’s three hospitals.
Blue Rodeo, one of Canada’s most beloved bands, and fiddle virtuoso MacMaster are teaming up to give audiences a musical journey they will not soon forget. Osler’s One Night — Two Stars — Three Hospitals Benefit Concert, presented by William Osler Health System Foundation and DG Group, will take place Nov. 21 at the Rose Theatre in Brampton. The show will feature a full concert by Blue Rodeo followed by traditional Cape Breton tunes from MacMaster.
Proceeds from the gala will fund redevelopment projects at Etobicoke General Hospital and Peel Memorial Centre for Integrated Health and Wellness, as well as the latest technology and equipment for Brampton Civic Hospital.
Gala co-chairs Francesco Policaro of Northwest Lexus and Policaro Automotive Family, and Norma Jean Borley of StageWork Home Staging, promise this year’s benefit concert will be an extraordinary evening of great music featuring a high energy mix of traditional and contemporary tunes.
“Osler’s fourth annual One Night — Two Stars — Three Hospitals Benefit Concert will be legendary,” Borley said. “It doesn’t get much better than having a chance to see Blue Rodeo and Natalie MacMaster perform. These Juno Award-winning musicians will captivate the audience with their upbeat, energetic performances and it will be an exciting evening in support of a great cause.”
The black-tie-optional event begins with a cocktail reception at 6 p.m. at which guests will have the opportunity to bid on a brand new Lexus IS 250, donated by Northwest Lexus, as well as other silent auction items.
