NAC Gala with Paul Anka at NAC Southam Hall

From "teen idol" to universally adored singer-songwriter who’s never stopped thrilling us, Paul Anka comes home for this season’s NAC Gala. And you’re invited to the "welcome back party"! One of Ottawa’s favourite native sons – we’ve even named a street after him! – his songs became the soundtrack of our lives. From “Diana," "Put Your Head on My Shoulder," and "Havin' My Baby" to his most recent chart-rocking albums, he continues to wow audiences wherever he goes. Come and hear why, as he and his fabulous band entertain you on this not-to-be-missed evening of music, romance and memories.

Maestro Pinchas Zukerman and the NAC Orchestra shine in the dazzling opening half of the concert with brilliant music-making – creating excitement, delight, and a joyful atmosphere that promises to make this Gala the social occasion of the season.
