The City of Prince George will be celebrating the CN Centre at the end of the month.
On September 28th, the City will be celebrating the venue’s 30th birthday with an event from 1:00 to 3:30 p.m., which will also include the City’s annual International Students Welcome and Thank You PG Volunteer Appreciation event.
Residents can expect:
- Live music
- Free public skating and equipment rentals sponsored by Architecture 49
- Free food and drinks (wouldn’t be a 30th celebration without cake!)
- Visit from Mr. PG
- Fun games and giveaways
The event will also feature former City Councillors, the building committee, and suppliers who were a part of making the arena what it is today.
“This is a great way for our staff to bring three City events under one roof,” said Mayor Simon Yu.
“The CN Centre is a beloved facility in Prince George – nearly everyone in our community has a memory to share about events they’ve attended there. We hope to hear those stories at the Big Celebration Event later this month, meet newcomers to Prince George, and celebrate the dedication of local volunteers!”
The event is just one part of the CN Centre 30th anniversary celebration:
- Bryan Adams, Tuesday, September 23rd
- Brent Butt, Thursday, September 25th
- Welcome Back Cadillac Ranch featuring Fresh Horses, Friday, September 26th
- Trooper, Saturday, September 27th
According to the City, Bryan Adams has sold more tickets than any other artist in the CN Centre’s history.
The event on the 28th is free and open to all residents.
