We told you about how
Joel Plaskett was just announced as one of the opening acts for ex-Beatle Sir Paul McCartney in Halifax this summer - and now East Coast favourites
Wintersleep have also been added to the bill.
The huge concert is happening
Saturday, July 11 on
the Halifax Common.
Last year,
the Stills opened for McCartney on the Plains of Abraham in Quebec City, a concert that drew a crowd of
over 200,000 people.
Says McCartney of his first-ever show on the Canadian East Coast, “I am very happy to be playing Halifax. The
Canadian audiences are great and the timing of the event, with the
arrival of the Tall Ships, means that it will be an exciting event for
us all. We are looking forward to rocking in Halifax."
Tickets aren't cheap - they range from
$136-316 - and you can find them
