Our beautiful city has so much to offer, and if you’re like me, you’re often looking for something fun to do that is active, is easy to attend with friends and family and maybe something new that you haven’t tried. We’ve picked our favourites to share with you!
June 6 – Def Leppard
If you were a young ‘un in the 80s, you’ll likely have memories of air guitar-ing along to Pour some Sugar On Me or Love Bites, if you were cool, that is.
