The City of Regina and Evraz Place will be announcing details on Tuesday for a concert at the new Mosaic Stadium in May.

On March 31, Evraz Place tweeted: “the Inaugural Concert in the new Mosaic Stadium is coming. Find out how you can be a part of history on April 4th.”

The concert is set to take place in late May as a second test event for the facility. The test event aims to fill the venue at 75-per-cent of its 33,000 person capacity.

Rumours among fans are that the headliner could be Canadian rock artist Bryan Adams. Adams, who is currently on a world tour, starts his North American leg in Los Angeles on May 20. He was last in Regina for his Reckless 30th Anniversary tour in 2015.
