Arkells

Live Nation and Budweiser Stage Back to Live are thrilled to announce ARKELLS triumphant return to live music – their first shows back onstage, for two once-in-a-return-from-pandemic history making nights at Toronto’s Iconic Budweiser Stage, aptly titled “ARKELLS LONG WEEKEND.” In bringing Budweiser Stage Back to Live, ARKELLS LONG WEEKEND will mark Arkells first live performance in 16 months, and the venue’s first show since summer of 2019.

“It’s been a long haul, but we kept telling ourselves to be patient – when shows come back, we’re going to do it big, and we’re going to do it right,’” says frontman Max Kerman. This event is billed as a long-weekend because it’ll feel like a celebration that we’ve yearned to have together. There’s no better place for it.”

“We’ve spent the past 10 years on the road playing shows, and it’s a trade we’re always trying to improve upon.” Notes Kerman. “We might be a little rusty coming back, but we can promise there will never be as much giddy, childlike excitement for our return to playing show. We’re already practicing up!”
