It may feel like summer is already here, but we still have a lot of long, hot days ahead of us until we reach the pinnacle of the summer season – the PNE.

There’s an excuse to get excited already with the release of the 2019 PNE Free Outdoor Concert Series lineup that was announced yesterday. The lineup is full of some legendary rockers and throwback favourites.

The concert series, which is free to attend with gate admission to the PNE, starts on August 17 and runs until September 2. All of the shows are outdoors and a rockin’ good time.
