Pop girlies descend on Fan Park

This week, we're highlighting an event pick by Taproot reporter Colin Gallant. Colin recommends Neon Skies Festival, Edmonton's newest pop festival that offers two nights of summer energy.

Here's what Colin had to say:

"I have been a Kesha fan forever because I relate to a party girl with a raunchy sense of humour. That would have been enough for me, but there's also Slayyyter — her spiritual successor for Gen Z audiences — who put out one of the best albums of the year so far and followed it with an exceptional Coachella performance. That combo makes the July 18 date the live music event of the year for me — and I just saw Angine de Poitrine last week!"
