MAJOR CONCERT PLANNED FOR MOSAIC STADIUM

The City of Regina and Evraz Place say a major concert will be happening at new Mosaic Stadium at the end of May called Regina Rocks Mosaic Stadium.

Mayor Michael Fougere announced Bryan Adams, Our Lady Peace and Johnny Reid will be performing in the inaugural concert at the new stadium on May 27.

Fougere says booking these artists will give new Mosaic Stadium a great test run.

The test event aims to fill the venue at 75% of its 33,000-person capacity.

The first test event at Mosaic Stadium was a football game between the University of Regina Rams and the University of Saskatchewan Huskies on October 1.

A total of 16,500 fans turned out for that event.

The last test event will be a Saskatchewan Roughriders preseason game on June 10 against the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.

The team’s regular season home opener is on July 1 against the Blue Bombers.
