Barenaked Ladies coming to Okanagan in time for Christmas

The iconic Canadian band Barenaked Ladies are launching a 14 city Hometown Holidays with Barenaked Ladies tour starting in Vancouver on Dec. 1.

The next day, Dec. 2, they’ll rock the South Okanagan Events Centre in Penticton, the only other B.C. city they will visit.

“Barenaked Ladies will perform holiday fan favourites from the Barenaked for the Holidays album, as well as a few other chestnuts and surprises,” a news release announcing the concert dates says.

“These special performances offer fans a rare opportunity to celebrate the season with Canada’s favourite foursome amongst family and friends, many coming together for the first time in three years.”
