THE MAIN EVENT
rare americans
The JUNO Awards-nominated band Rare Americans are bringing their genre-blending, story-driven anthems to THE CREATIVE TRIP Collective Arts X The Gaslight District stage on September 26th!

nobro
Get ready to riot—in the best way. Montreal’s unapologetically fierce rock queens NOBRO are bringing their explosive energy to The Creative Trip With thunderous drums, ripping riffs, and the kind of stage presence that grabs you by the collar, this all-female punk powerhouse is here to blow the roof off the District.
the vaniers
With their indie-alternative rock sound, The Vaniers have become a staple of the Toronto music scene, known for high-octane shows and catchy tunes that stay stuck in your head long after the lights go down. Don’t miss their set in the heart of the Gaslight District — it’s going to be loud, electric, and unforgettable.
weird nightmare
From the mind of Alex Edkins ( @metz_theband ), this solo project brings a perfect storm of power-pop, lo-fi grit, and raw emotional energy that’ll leave your head spinning and your heart thrashing. It’s energetic. It’s melodic. It’s pure sonic adrenaline!
