Elvis & Elton Tribute Show at the new Water's Edge Event Centre

Read Biz X Magazine Here

On August 15 at 7:30pm there is a wonderful tribute show featuring Brian Harris as "Simply Elton" and John Cigan as Elvis. 
This event takes place at the new Water's Edge Event Centre which has been repurposed from a the large church on the corner of Riverside Drive East and Drouillard. It is a beautiful venue with parking and is accessible with an elevator. The building now boasts air conditioning and a long bar.
Reserved seating at tables for the show is available at 28.00 (including service charge) until August 13th. Open seating is available at 22.00 (including service charge) unti August 13th and then will be available at the door for 25.00.
This show creates something that never happened. Elton John was a big Elvis fan and they probably would have done a show together had Elvis lived longer. We have tried to create a "taste" of what that might have been like.
Tickets are available at http://www.windsorkingfest.com/tickets.html or by calling (226) 783-5069.
