Londoners might never hear the end of today's rock and of the next best thing as bands Sloan and Ivory Hours headline the Rockin' New Year's celebrations at London's Victoria Park.
Nationally acclaimed Ivory Hours, the London-based alt-pop band that won The Next Big Thing competition, previews its 2016 North American tour with a set at the park's bandshell on Dec. 31.
Sloan has won nine Juno awards, including a nomination for best rock album with Never Hear the End of It.
For the kids, Glee London will dance and sing their way towards a junior-bedtime fireworks display at 9 p.m., before the main acts take the stage to lead into midnight fireworks.
Event co-chairperson Ed Holder said the event is possible only with the help of sponsorships and donations totalling more than $100,000.
"I think this is going to be the best entertainment line-up that we've ever had," Holder said. "It's the most powerful three acts we've put together in 15 years."
