The Big Band Benefit

Saint John’s biggest names will be bringing the house down for a spectacular night of big band magic in support of the New Brunswick Heart Center. The finest musicians, business people, and politicians will take the stage in sharp suits and ties, delivering electrifying big band arrangements of all-time classics- think “R.E.S.P.E.C.T.,” “Route 66,” and “Build Me Up Buttercup” like you’ve never heard them before. This isn’t just a concert- it’s a night of nostalgia, energy and community, where every seat in the house becomes a sing-along. Dress up, show up, and help us raise money for a cause that truly matters- because a night this good is even better when it’s for the heart.
