The Ottawa Valley’s biggest party of the year returns to Renfrew’s myFM Centre tonight, Saturday, May 24, as we host the myFM Friends in Low Places Block Party, featuring ‘Black Tie Affair – The Music of Garth Brooks’ on the big stage inside the arena.
As the concert fast approaches, we’ve compiled a list of Frequently Asked Questions to help you out.
How much are tickets?
$45+hst and there will be some available at the door.
‘Black Tie Affair’ Does that mean I have to dress up?
