Calling all Pink fans: a boxful of last-minute tickets for the popstar’s sold out concert at Rogers Arena are up for grabs, to those who are feeling particularly philanthropic.
The Lions Gate Hospital Foundation is offering a set of private concert box tickets to this Friday’s concert to the person who can fundraise the most for North Vancouver’s Lions Gate Hospital.
The highest bidder will receive 14 tickets to Pink’s The Summer Carnival tour, nabbing the most prime position to see the singer deliver some belters and whirl around the stage as she performs her famed, acrobatics-laden show.
The winner will also receive two free parking passes for the evening.
The artist, known for international hits "Get The Party Started," "So What," "Just Give Me a Reason" and "Just Like A Pill," is expected to draw huge crowds to Rogers Arena with shows penned for both Friday and Saturday night.
The ninth concert tour to come from the American singer, The Summer Carnival is a celebration of her latest album, Trustfall, released last year.
Kicking off in June last year at the University of Bolton Stadium in England’s Bolton, and set to conclude in Florida this November, the all-encompassing tour has seen the sequin-drenched artist trapeze her way through countless cities, shows and special guests.
Opening for the singer on Friday and Saturday at Rogers Arena will be Irish indie rock band The Script and Los Angeles-based DJ and producer KidCutUp.
Those willing to take their chances can make a donation at the LGH Foundation’s official auction page, with bidding set to close at noon on Friday, Sept. 6.
All of the funds raised will support the foundation’s Bigger, Better Cancer Care campaign, a project designed to expand and enhance oncology services at Lions Gate Hospital.
