Weekend plans | Enjoy the last days of September

Autumn is here. To emphasize this, here are some activity ideas.


Morgan Wallen in Ottawa, Quebec and Montreal

Discovered in the United States in 2014 during his appearance on the television music competition The Voice, Morgan Wallen has since been accumulating success at a sustained pace. The country singer has seen his last two albums go to the top of the charts Hot 100 from Billboard; eight of his songs reached the top 10. In short, the 30-year-old is on fire and transcends the boundaries between pop and country. He kicked off the Canadian leg of his tour last weekend in Toronto. One Night At A Timeand stops this Thursday in Ottawa before going to Quebec on Friday and Montreal on Saturday where he should play in front of packed houses.
