Over 350 locals will be performing during the opening ceremonies of the Western Canada Summer Games on Friday, Aug. 7., at Shell Place.
“The event is being brought to you by hundreds of local performers, amazing corporate partners and it truly will be an amazing welcome to the athletes competing throughout the Games,” said Kim Rizzi, General Manager, 2015 Wood Buffalo. “This is our backyard, and we do things big and bold and this event will be no different. This is a historic night for our region and one you’ll definitely not want to miss.”
