Canadian and U.S. snowbirds, international tourists and locals will come together to celebrate our desert lifestyle at the fourth annual Canada/Snowbird Fest produced by Bette King Productions. The two-day event will be held at the Agua Caliente Resort Casino and Spa in Rancho Mirage on Saturday, February 27, from 9am-5pm, and Sunday, February 28, from 9am-3pm.

This year’s event features three shows on Saturday including the Electric Vehicle Show displaying top technology vehicles. At 12:30 pm, JWP Productions will present a musical Polynesian Review, “Return to Paradise,” featuring the dances and songs of the islands with a special tribute to Don Ho. At 8 pm, a Rock Roll ‘n R&B concert will feature original performers from The Coasters; Jacko Marcellino of Sha Na Na; Freddie Pool of The Three Degrees; and Peter Beckett and Ron Moss of Player with a special performance by The Satin Dollz.

The concert finale will be a tribute to the military with an appearance by Kevin Shaffer of The Wounded Warrior Project, this year’s featured charity. During the two-day fest, there will be A Charity Tree of Life and several activities to benefit The Wounded Warrior Project.

In addition to these shows, Canada/Snowbird Fest also features a variety of activities, programs, entertainment, vendors, speakers, drawings, and giveaways. Tim Horton coffee, Poutine (Canadian French fries served with cheese curds and brown gravy) and other favorite food items will be served. Dr. Philip Yoo will be a featured speaker and will give out autographed copies of his book.
