Canada Day Long Weekend was busy with activities, but the fun doesn’t end there! Enjoy the exciting events happening this week all over the Eastman Region. Live music, wild edible classes, and homemade go-cart races are just some of the fun planned for this week!

Jaxon Haldane

July 3 – The Listening Room – Lac du Bonnet

Jaxon Haldane reveres tradition while retaining a distinct modernism. His ability to combine the visceral intensity of punk rock or Dixieland, with the soul-stirring emotion of vintage country and blues is emboldened by his songwriting. The result is a gumbo – rich and spicy. Earthy, yet sweet. Rustic, but refined enough that you know a real chef is in the kitchen… one who cooks with love.

Heart Of The Nation Music Festival

July 5 to 7- Hill Top Resort – Grand Beach

Hill Top Resort, Canada’s Largest Private Campground & Outdoor Event Centre, is proud to host the Heart Of The Nation Music Festival July 5-7, 2019. In our first year, we will feature the best line up of Manitoba talent you’ll find in one weekend! Sweet Alibi, The Duhks, Brandy Zdan, Ego Spank, Indian City, Attica Riots, House Handshake, Prairie Soul and so many more talented artists!

St. Labre 200

July 5 – St. Labre – Piney

It’s the most epic event of your summer as teams race to build, test and race their homemade go-carts! But it’s way more than just racing. St. Labre 200 puts all proceeds to charities across Manitoba, and it’s probably the only free event of its kind here in Manitoba. Come out and join the fun!

Wild Edible Adventures

July 6 – Prairie Shore Botanicals – Stuartburn

Prepare a full-course meal with a variety of wild edibles that you gathered, yourself! This full-day class covers plant identification basics, poisonous lookalikes, harvesting techniques and etiquette, and preparation. Each class will focus on different plants or plant parts.
