ESTEVAN - Estevan’s Downtown Business Association (DBA) is looking forward to a street dance occurring in central Estevan for the third time in the past four years.
The event will happen on July 23, with gates opening at 9 p.m. The dance will occupy the 1100-block of Fourth Street, with the stage and dancing area in the street and a beer garden at the Tower Café parking lot.
The event is open to those at least 19 years of age.
Melissa Deitz with Lemon Wedge Marketing said this is going to be an “amazing” evening of music and partying in the heart of the city.
Brock Andrews and Brody Siebert will be the entertainment. Both are Saskatchewan country music singers teaming up to put on a show.
“They proudly represent Saskatchewan on stages across North America. The two performers will take turns throughout the night, each performing two 45-minute sets,” she said.
The event is being put on by the DBA and is an integral part of the association’s fundraising efforts, which go towards future events, promotions and beautification initiatives.
Proceeds will benefit such initiatives as the night markets that happen downtown on Thursday nights. The DBA also wants to have new events during the year to draw people to downtown and to Estevan in general.
“We want to bring more people into the community and enjoy all of the amenities and the retail that we have here in Estevan,” she said.
The association has 30 members.
Advance tickets are $20 and can be purchased at Henders Drugs until Saturday at noon. The cost of admission at the door will be $30. Up to 2,000 tickets are available.
A street dance was held in Estevan in 2019 as a featured attraction of the Rafferty Rumble. Another one was held in 2021 and was billed as the Lockdown End Party to mark the removal of COVID-19 restrictions.
“The street dance has been a popular event over the past few years in Estevan and we are so happy to be able to bring it to the city once again,” Deitz wrote.
