After a sold-out NYE 2024 celebration, The Get Downs return to Yardbird Suite to ring in 2027 with their signature retro party sound.

Celebrate all 2027 has to offer with Edmonton’s 10-piece soul, R&B and Motown party band, serving up a high-energy mix of timeless hits, big vocals, tight grooves and all-night dance-floor favourites. From Stevie Wonder and Aretha Franklin to Earth, Wind & Fire, The Jackson 5 and beyond, The Get Downs bring the kind of live show that gets the whole room moving.

Expect hors d’oeuvres, party favours, bubbly and a full night of dancing in the intimate, iconic setting of the Yardbird Suite.

This special New Year’s Eve celebration is also a Yardbird Suite fundraiser, supporting the Edmonton Jazz Society and its ongoing work to keep live music thriving in Edmonton.

If you want to dance your way into 2027, this is your night.
