SUMMARY:Graventown Yard Pals: Ron Hawkins
DESCRIPTION:A special intimate outdoor yard show hosted by Graventown featuring Ron Hawkins performing in a private backyard setting in Nepean\, with limited capacity meaning it will sell out quickly. Ron Hawkins is a respected figure in the Canadian indie rock scene with a long musical career. The show runs from 7 PM to 9 PM and is ticketed through Eventbrite. This is an unusual and intimate concert format that puts the audience close to the performer in a residential outdoor setting\, making it a genuinely unique live music experience in Ottawa. Tickets should be purchased in advance as the event is listed as almost full on Eventbrite. \nEvent details can change\, so verify with the organizer before attending.
