Burger Wars in support of NEO Kids Foundation!
During the month of August, we have invited restaurants/cafés in Greater Sudbury to participate in a burger frenzy to battle for the title of ‘Best Burger’ in town, while raising funds for NEO Kids Foundation! How it works- Burger lovers will visit as many of the participating restaurants as possible in August and vote for their favourite burger on our website www.sudburyburgerwars.com For every burger sold at each location, $1 will be donated to NEO Kids Foundation to help keep our children closer to home. NEO Kids Foundation raises funds to purchase vital pieces of equipment, conduct life-changing research, and increase awareness for children’s health needs in Northeastern Ontario. #burgerwars #neokidsfoundation

James and the Giant Peach
From the composers of The Greatest Showman, La La Land and Dear Evan Hansen comes this incredibly moving and heart-pounding rendition of one of Roald Dahl’s fantastic tale of a boy, his insect friends and their amazing journey across the ocean on a giant piece of fruit! When James is sent by his conniving aunts to chop down their old fruit tree, he discovers a magic potion that results in a tremendous peach... and launches a journey of enormous proportions. Suddenly, James finds himself in the center of the gigantic peach, among human-sized insects with equally oversized personalities, but after it falls from the tree and rolls into the ocean, the group faces hunger, sharks and plenty of disagreements. Thanks to James' quick wit and creative thinking, the residents learn to live and work together as a family. The dangerous voyage is a success, but the adventure takes a whole new twist once they land on the Empire State Building.

UP HERE: Milk & Bone / Lydia Ainsworth / Jennifer Holub
Milk & Bone are coming to Northern Ontario for the first time ever to cap off Up Here 5! Opening acts to be announced tomorrow! Presented by Downtown Sudbury. MILK & BONE Montréal’s Milk & Bone create melodies that are both dreamy and harrowing. Made up of electronic textures and layered synths, the duo’s sonic universe distinguishes itself from the electro-pop genre with their perfectly-paired vocal colours. Their sophomore album, Deception Bay was released in 2018 and won them the Juno for best electronic album of the year. LYDIA AINSWORTH Lydia Ainsworth has been making waves since the release of her latest album last month. She sings from three perspectives: herself, Mother Nature, and Greek Chorus, taking the listener on a journey. Living in the lush and complex dream world almost entirely on her own, she creates the kind of bewitching pop that you'd swear soundtracked your dreams. JENNIFER HOLUB Teacher-turned-songstress, Jennifer Holub is teaching us all what modern folk can sound like. Equally comfortable singing as on guitar and keys, her haunting melodies tell bittersweet tales set in Northern Ontario. Her new album “The Reckoning” is a hawkish condemnation of society’s place for women, and an urgent call to rouse from it. TICKETS / All-Ages 25$ advance / 30$ at the door Free for children 12 and under. uphere.com/tickets UP HERE Up Here is an urban art & emerging music festival in weird and wonderful downtown Sudbury that takes place from August 16-18, 2019. Follow Up Here festival. RSVP Up Here 5. 🔵🔺🔶💚 MILK & BONE Le duo Milk & Bone de Montréal crée des mélodies à la fois rêveuses et déchirantes. Composé de textures électroniques et de synthés en couches, l’univers sonore du groupe se distingue du genre électropop par des couleurs vocales en symbiose. Le deuxième album...
