LETHBRIDGE, AB – The events taking place around Lethbridge this week have something for everyone. You can dance, listen, learn, and celebrate all week.

For those with rhythm or who like to dance like no-one is watching, you can check out the Outdoor Social Dance. Starting at 7 p.m. on Monday, June 27, the Swing Bridge Dance Community (SBDC) will be playing classic swing tunes during a free dance event at the Legacy Park ampitheater, near the cross street of 40 Avenue North and 13 Street North. This is the first public event being hosted by SBDC, and although masks are not required, they are welcomed at the event, and the group asks individuals in attendance to please respect an individuals choice on the matter.

If you’d rather watch someone dance than participate yourself, head over to The Slice on Thursday, June 30, for Jukeboxx Rock n Roll Burlesque. Doors open for the event at 7 p.m. and feature 8 performers from the group Cabaret Calgary. Tickets can be purchased at the door or can be bought in advance on Showpass.

Need something heavier for a Thursday night? Rock out and get loud for Rebel Priest and Deadwolff and Hell Diablo at Theoretically Brewing. Doors open at 6 p.m. and tickets are available at the door. This concert is part of the Rebel Wolff Tour, as it makes its way through Western Canada.

Finally, on July 1, Canada Day events will be taking place at various locations around Lethbridge. At 9 a.m. you can grab a free breakfast sandwich at Galt Gardens which is being served by the Interfaith Food Bank. Once you have some breakfast, stick around for the Le Baron Car Club show and shine. Registration is just $10 and all the proceeds raised go towards the Interfaith Food Bank. If a show and shine isn’t up your alley, take in some of the performances happening on the Galt Gardens stage throughout the day, or the shop the open air market. Also starting at 9 a.m. is the Henderson Lake Parkrun. Participants can register for the 5km run, on the Parkrun website. The Interfaith Food Bank will also be collecting non-perishable food items at this event. To finish off the day there will be a night time fireworks display starting at 11 p.m. at Henderson Lake.
