The Jonas Brothers are bringing their hits to Toronto's Massey Hall this Saturday, February 15.

The surprise concert celebrates the band's 20-year anniversary, and 20 is a big theme of the night: they'll play 20 songs, to 2000 attendees, for just $20 per ticket.


The band shared a letter on Instagram, promising more announcements to come and expressing gratitude for their two-decade career. "It feels like just yesterday we were loading up our family mini-van with a couple of guitars," they write. "In the years that followed, you've given us a thousand lifetimes of incredible memories."

The Massey Hall concert is an extra treat for Toronto Jonas Brothers fans, many of whom recently got a surprise visit from the band at a local Camp Rock trivia night. In town filming an upcoming Christmas movie, the band popped in to Hemingway's restaurant and bar to join in the event, though they refrained from answering questions themselves.

They also built up their Canadian cred last fall with a Grey Cup half-time performance in Vancouver that saw them breakout their No. 1 hit "Sucker," as well as a horn section and some pyrotechnics.

They'll be bringing that track and 19 more to the historic Massey Hall venue tomorrow night, with the show beginning at 8 p.m. (or, 20:00).

Tickets are currently sold out, though it's always wise to keep checking Ticketmaster for last-minute drops.

For fans who can't make it, they also announced an anniversary celebration in March, JONASCON, which will see them take over the American Dream mall in New Jersey. The band got their start performing in malls as kids, and became teen idols through starring roles in the Disney Camp Rock movies and with early hits like "Burnin' Up."
