Dresden’s Christmas Town Wheelhouse Concerts are kicking off in November.
Put on by the Rotary Club of Dresden, five acts will take to the stage, with the first act performing Nov. 21, the same evening the town lights up for its annual Merry & Bright Thursday nights.
Patterned on the success of the club’s Summer Concert Series, the lineup will include the Wallaceburg Concert Band’s Brass Quintet Nov. 21; Rod Lorimer and Chuck and Dave, Nov. 28; the La Fiesta Band, Dec. 5; the Kenny and Joel Acoustic Show, Dec. 12 and Classic Vibe on Dec. 19.
Dresden Rotary president Paul Weese said the organization is pleased to offer the new series.
“We have a long history of supporting area musicians and promoting live music in Dresden,” Weese said in a media release. “The Wheelhouse Concerts build on that success and we’ve assembled a unique line-up of talent to entertain Christmas Town.”
Businesses will remain open on the Merry & Bright Nights until 8 p.m.
Tickets for individual concerts are on sale for $10 each and are available at McKellar’s Flowers and Union Block Bakery, as well as by email at dresdenrotaryauction@gmail.com. A discounted subscription price of $40 for all 5 concerts is also available.
