Now is the perfect time to get back to live performance, and, we want our guests to feel safe as we all begin to venture back out. To help with the transition of beginning to attend live events, we are choosing to limit the venue’s capacity to 50% so that we all have a bit of extra space and masks will be mandatory.

Be sure secure your spot today! Tickets are only $50 and can be purchased online at Showplace 

Even if you are unable to attend the event, you can still support the Musicians United to End Homelessness initiative….Peterborough Performs 2.0 Virtual Auction is now LIVE! Check it out HERE.

It’s hard to believe 2016 was 10 years ago! 🕰️

So much has changed in the last decade and yet, so much has stayed the same. Ten years ago, we were celebrating a major milestone: 75 years of serving Peterborough & County. We were raising funds through fun community events, supporting ongoing initiatives like Backpacks for Success, hitting big team milestones, and making headlines alongside media partners who continue to uplift our work.

Now, as we celebrate 85 years, the most important thing remains the same, we’re still here building community and changing lives for people across the City of Peterborough. 💙

Did you know❓
The third Monday in January is widely known as Blue Monday, the saddest day of the year.

The holiday season has passed us by, daylight is fleeting, nights are cold, and the weather is chilly. It’s no wonder some of us are feeling low, but it’s important to know you are not alone 🤍

United Way Peterborough & District is proud to partner with 211 to offer support when times get tough
