Bear and Co.

Why not start December the same way we intend to end it? With a fun weekend of music, the arts, and time spent with our favourite people.

What if we told you that you could keep up your Christmas caroling tradition, support out-of-work Ottawa theatre artists and a great charity, and even have the chance to win a prize—all while being COVID-safe? That’s right: Bear & Co. have combined competition, community-building, charity, and holiday cheer with their Catch a Caroler event this holiday season.

The Gladstone is guaranteed to be one of the busiest venues in Ottawa next season.

This weekend isn’t only about the giant monsters of La Machine, although we are pretty excited to check them out. With lots happening in the city and on the outskirts (we’re looking at you, MayoFest!), grab your friends and have a blast.
