Will music lovers flock to see Keith Urban next Canada Day? The city hopes so

Mayor Steve Black just announced the lineup for next summer's $3.5-million fireworks festival, and the headline act will be country star Keith Urban.

He'll be backed up by Johnny Reid and Sons of Maxwell for the main Canada Day show, which coincides with the country's 150th anniversary.

The city will be offering a $240 eight-day pass or a $400 eight-day VIP pass.

Tickets to the general public go on sale Dec. 2, but if you live in Timmins you can get them the day before.
