The Pacific National Exhibition (PNE) has unveiled the lineup for its annual Summer Nights concert series featuring some major blasts from the past.
Among the classic acts taking to the stage will be the B-52s, who are on a farewell tour, the Beach Boys and the Steve Miller Band.
Canadian rock fans will be able to check out the Barenaked Ladies with guest star Kim Mitchell, Randy Bachman and Burton Cummings, and country-rock band Blue Rodeo.
Nineties fans will be able to choose from a number of shows, including a double-header with TLC and Shaggy, a performance by rockers Cake or rapper Nelly.

The PNE is aiming for a return to a fair experience much more in keeping with the pre-pandemic era, though some changes will remain in place.
