The Vancouver Maritime Museum is pleased to announce a contest that will put two lucky frontline workers and three of their friends in the front row for private viewings of upcoming shows in the Celebrate Canada virtual concert series.
Contest winners will get to watch concerts that are being performed on the deck of the historic St. Roch. The concerts will also be live streamed on our Facebook Page at 7:00 pm. The contest winner and their three friends will be the only members of the public inside the museum during the concert.
You can nominate an essential services worker who has served Vancouver during the COVID-19 pandemic by emailing marketing@vanmaritime.com or by using the hashtag #FrontRow4Frontline on Twitter or Instagram with details about who they want to nominate and why. Winners will be announced on Tuesday July 21 and Tuesday July 28.
These are the performances that frontline workers have a chance to see:

Their unique original songs that rival jazz standards of the past and pop hits of today. Executed with poise, class, professionalism and a lot of sass, the music of The Colorifics is a welcome refreshment for the musical soul.
