Join legendary broadcaster and music historian Alan Cross as we mark the 50th anniversary of one of the most iconic concerts in Hamilton’s history: Pink Floyd at Ivor Wynne Stadium, June 28, 1975.
‘Remember when you were young?’ Alan Cross will explore how this monumental show came to be, why it mattered, and how it shaped the city’s musical legacy. From the band’s peak creative powers to the cultural impact of that night, Alan offers a deep dive into the history, mystery, and myth of a legendary performance that has echoed through the decades.
The event will also feature the only known surviving footage of the concert, recently restored by Speedy Films, in its entirety. Rob Gronfor of Speedy Films will be in-person to present the film.
