Snowbird Extravaganza, billed as the largest single gathering of Canadians outside of Canada, is scheduled from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday at the Lakeland Center, 701 W. Lime St.
Entertainment includes Canadian singer Rita MacNeil, three-time Grammy award winner Walter Ostanek, Canadian jazz legend Peter Appleyard, musical comedy duo Bowser & Blue, NHL hockey great Ron Ellis, Cape Breton tenor Tom Leadbeater, the "funny guy who juggles" Sean Emery, Nashville recording artist Crystal Gage, and crowd pleasers The Harmonicats.
The event combines a consumer show featuring products and services of local and national organizations with three stages of entertainment and a special presentation by The Hockey Hall of Fame and Florida Lottery.
Every year, tens of thousands of Canadian and American winter visitors migrate to the state of Florida to escape the cold winter weather of the north. Snowbird Extravaganza is a homecoming and a celebration of this unique way of life, the "Snowbird Lifestyle."
Free admission, parking is $5.
