A ‘Locals Showcase’ will bring alive Red Deer’s entertainment district this coming Aug. 31.

The event, which organizers say will offer a vibrant evening of music and community spirit, goes from 5:30-9 p.m. on the Ross Street Patio.

According to organizers:

The “Locals Showcase” will feature some of Red Deer’s finest performers, including Paeton Cameron, Jeremy Doody, Rebecca Raabis, Shiv Shanks, Jamie Adams, Stephen Scott, Jaydin Vonkeman, Brad Abel, Mike Szabo, and Katy Grant. Organized and hosted by Brandon Bouchard of Downtown Red Deer Adventures, the event will kick off with opening remarks from Mayor Ken Johnston, celebrating the third summer of the Entertainment District, the first of its kind in Alberta. The event will be filmed and submitted to Rogers TV.

There will also be drink specials at several downtown patio-area establishments.
