It is Never Too Late for a good old-fashioned rock concert at the Brandt Centre. Three Days Grace, one of Canada's most enduring rock forces, headlines a weekend packed with entertainment options in Regina. From car shows to art exhibitions, there is something for everyone.
1. Three Days Grace
The multi-platinum band brings its Alienation Tour to Regina on Saturday night, marking the group's first appearance in the city since 2018. With over 60 dates across Canada, the U.S., and overseas, the tour promises a full-blown rock celebration. Supporting acts include Finger Eleven and Royal Tusk. As of Wednesday, only a handful of tickets remained for the show at the Brandt Centre.
Three Days Grace has been a top-selling Canadian band for over two decades, accumulating 20 No. 1 singles on the U.S. Billboard Mainstream Rock Airplay chart. The Juno-winning group continues to dominate with hits like Mayday, Apologies, and Kill Me Fast from their latest album, alongside classics such as Animal I Have Become, I Hate Everything About You, and Never Too Late.

Saskatchewan's biggest homegrown rock band performs at the Casino Regina Show Lounge on Saturday night as part of the Out All Night Tour. The Saskatoon group is promoting its new album, Keep Out of the Storm, on the Western leg of a cross-Canada trek before heading to Europe for a major tour.
The Sheepdogs gained mainstream success in 2010 with their platinum-selling third album, Learn & Burn. Their catalogue includes hits like The Way It Is, Feeling Good, and I Don't Know. Described as a modern rock and roll revival, the band blends southern rock, psychedelia, and bluesy swagger with three-part harmonies and dual guitar leads.
