The Alex Bailey Swing Band Concert & BBQ
Ministers Island
Sunday Island Concert!
A great Island experience that the whole family will love
Featured Artist: The Alex Bailey Swing Band. This nine piece ensemble has been the talk of the town in Fredericton for years and was a crowd favourite on the Island last season. Their song lineup will include hits by Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald, Miles Davis, and more.
Island BBQ Hosts: St Andrews' BBQ masters Char & Chowder. Pre-order your BBQ CharBox and save $5/meal vs purchasing at the concert. Pre-ordered food choices:

b) CHARBox 2: "Tacos Al Pastor". Two flour tortilla pulled pork tacos with grilled pineapple salsa and not so spicy crema. Served with Mexican street rice and beans.
Alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages available at an additional cost.
Ticket Cost: $44 for the performance/CHARBox combo; $23 for the performance only.
Ticket Includes: the concert, access to the island buildings and trails, island parking, and (if you've ordered a performance/CHARBox combo ticket) your choice of CharBOX. Tax and booking fee are additional.
