About this event
NEW DATE: WEDNESDAY, 4 NOVEMBER 2026 at 7.30pm —- Few artists capture the beauty, humour, and complexity of modern life quite like Dan Mangan – and with Natural Lights, Mangan returns to his songs-for-the-camp-fire roots. Completely unplanned and recorded over six days by four best buds in a cabin by a lake, Mangan describes it as ‘the most magical album of my life’. One of Canada’s most compelling songwriters, Mangan transforms everyday moments into unforgettable stories, whilst winning two Juno awards and selling out Massey Hall. Creating music that is both personal and relatable, his songs balance vulnerability with wit, exploring themes of family, community, hope, and uncertainty. Mangan makes audiences feel part of the conversation as his warm stage presence and thoughtful storytelling create an experience that is as moving as it is entertaining. Expect an evening of rich melodies, unforgettable lyrics, and genuine human connection.
