Brandon Welcomes Top Artists for Public Concerts at Manitoba Showcase 2024

The Manitoba Arts Network is excited to bring three public concerts to Brandon as part of Manitoba Showcase 2024. Featuring a diverse lineup of artists from Manitoba and beyond, these performances will take place on October 25 & 26, 2024, at Brandon’s Western Manitoba Centennial Auditorium, following a “No Ticket, Pay for the Value You Receive” model to make the concerts accessible to all.

This year’s concerts offer a diverse lineup, including artists such as Quinton Blair, Leisa Way and The Wayward Wind Band, The Abrams, Fierbois, Leaf Rapids, and many more, including six RBC Emerging Artists. From country and rock to comedy with Molly’s Comedy Cabaret, the concerts promise an unforgettable experience for music lovers of all kinds.

“The public concerts are a highlight of Manitoba Showcase 2024,” says Rose-Anne Harder, Executive Director of the Manitoba Arts Network. “We’re excited to offer this accessible Pay for the Value you Receive model so everyone can enjoy these incredible performances while supporting our local and national artists.”

Beyond the concerts, Manitoba Showcase provides artists with an invaluable platform to connect with industry professionals, including presenters, agents, and media, helping boost their careers and expand their reach. This is a can’t-miss event for both the local community and music lovers across Manitoba.

Kaitlyn Mitchell, General Manager of the Western Manitoba Centennial Auditorium, added, “Weare delighted here at the WMCA to have the Manitoba Arts Network Showcases return to our beloved venue. We are proud to support Manitoba artists and hope the public can join us for some wonderful  entertainment.”
