Good evening, Victoria! Victoria is in for one massive weekend! 🎶
The David Foster Foundation’s 40th anniversary celebration takes over downtown, with a huge free concert happening in the Inner Harbour tomorrow night. The star-studded lineup includes Josh Groban, Katharine McPhee, CeeLo Green, The Tenors, Sydnie Christmas and more. The show runs from 7:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. and will include another Snowbirds flypast! ✈️
Tonight’s sold-out gala will feature even more big names, including Chad Kroeger and Maroon 5’s Adam Levine and James Valentine. We’ll be on the red carpet speaking with the artists and hopefully two very special guests—but we’ve been sworn to secrecy! Watch our Instagram and Facebook pages to see who shows up.
The weekend is looking cooler but mainly dry, and our complete weekend things-to-do list is now live!
Keep scrolling for that and plenty of other stories from today.
Enjoy your weekend!
