It’s not often one has an opportunity to get up close for a private VIP concert experience with celebrity-status musicians in an intimate environment. However, that’s what happened recently here in Toronto for a few hundred lucky Tegan and Sara fans. This Canadian duo also happens to be on the cover of our Pride edition issue of theBUZZ this month.

Without a doubt, Tegan & Sara know how to rock Canada. Headlining after Detroit-based indie pop duo JR JR this past Saturday, June 25, the Canada-born band helped fans and members of Hilton HHonors loyalty program. The concert, which took place at Hilton Toronto, is part of the 2016 Hilton Concert Series – and was the series’ first Canada concert. From the pre-concert reception menu, which featured locally-inspired fare, to two intimate performances, Saturday’s event provided 400+ attendees with an exclusive experience that only Hilton HHonors members can enjoy.

As some of the many benefits of Hilton HHonors, Hilton has introduced members to some of the music industry’s most buzz-worthy artists through the Hilton HHonors Artist Connections and Concert Series. Hilton HHonors members can redeem Points for these events at HHonors.com/auctions. Following last weekend’s Tegan & Sara concert, the final concerts of this year’s series include:
