The Beaches Get Ready to Play Their First Hometown Arena Concert in Toronto

It’s a week full of hometown shows — Cœur de Pirate plays Montreal, while emerging star Sofia Camara plays Toronto.

This week, The Beaches are hometown heroes, playing their largest-ever headlining show at Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena. The foursome are on a cross-country tour in support of their record No Hard Feelings, and it brings them to the most monumental concert of their career journey.

Plus, Montreal singer Cœur de Pirate will perform an intimate show in her hometown, while country star Dallas Smith continues her 51-date trek across Canada. Vancouver-native Mikayla Geier brings her TikTok viral hits to the west coast and pop star Sabrina Carpenter nabs two sold-out shows at Scotiabank Arena on her lone Canadian stop.
