Info
The Halifax for Haiti benefit concert featuring Halifax-based DRUM! and an array of the region’s finest artists is confirmed for the Halifax Metro Centre, Monday, February 8 at 7:30 p.m. All tickets are $20 and go on sale at 11 a.m., Tuesday, January 19 through www.ticketatlantic.com, at the Ticket Atlantic box office, charge by phone at 451-1221 or at any of the 17 participating Atlantic Superstore outlets. Proceeds from the event will go to the Canadian Red Cross, to support their relief efforts in earthquake-ravaged Haiti.
The event, featuring a solid line-up of East Coast headliners along with a segment from the electrifying music, rhythms and dance of DRUM!, will be produced by Brookes Diamond Productions. “Our DRUM! team wanted to do something to help the people of Haiti in their time of greatest need and the music community jumped in immediately offering their services," said Diamond. "As well, we are so thrilled that our friends in the business community are sponsoring this and local media are jumping on board to help pull this together so quickly.”
“We wanted to lend our support in the best way we know how—with the expertise of our people who make things happen behind the scenes in a facility capable of holding what we very much hope will be a large crowd,” said Scott Ferguson, President & CEO of Trade Centre Limited, the provincial crown corporation that operates the Halifax Metro Centre. “Nova Scotians are known for their huge hearts and generous nature. Now is the time for all of us to join together and show our generosity in support of those who need us so much right now.”
