Amero Little Christmas

Pinawa Community Centre – Pinawa

Amero Little Christmas is a new take on a classic Christmas variety show. It falls somewhere between a Michael Bublé Christmas Special and Tom Jackson’s Huron Carole, giving the audience a modern take on an annual Christmas show. Between the witty banter, lots of laughs, heartfelt music and inspiring stories, Amero Little Christmas is an experience for the whole family. Don Amero is a three-time Juno nominee who is making his mark on the Canadian Country music scene and he’ll be touring this winter to bring his soulful country voice along with a few bandmates to ring in the holiday season.

Our recorded data will be sent to eBird to be used in scientific research in North America. Afterwards, enjoy hot chocolate! REGISTRATION REQUIRED. Register online here.
