The Beaches are announcing another NXNE surprise.

After the last girls have left the party for their special DJ set on June 12, The Beaches will play a special concert at a well-known Toronto venue on June 15.


It's a big summer for the breakout Canadian band, with a recent festival set at Coachella and another big one this summer at Osheaga in Montreal. Their new album No Hard Feelings comes out August 29 on AWAL, and its early singles are already rock radio staples. Their latest, "Did I Say Too Much" is coming soon.

The June 15 concert, in partnership with Billboard Canada and NXNE, will be a special intimate all-ages event. The only way to get in is with an NXNE wristband (for a lucky 100 festival-goers) or by winning tickets. To enter, comment on the below Instagram post and RSVP at this link. Winners will be drawn and notified on June 9, with the venue to be revealed later this week.
