Canada Life Place
Budweiser Gardens is rebranding to “Canada Life Place” on October 11th 2024!
Pitched in early September 2024, Canada Life and Oak View Group have suggested a rebranded name for the arena. Finalized at the council meeting today, the arena is proud to share the partnership with Canada Life, creating a new chapter in this landmark’s history.
Introducing the 10 year agreement, London Mayor Josh Morgan says that this rebranding is a way to bring Londoners together and promote economic growth.
Though it hurts to say goodbye to the name “Budweiser Gardens”, we are excited for this new iconic name for future generations, and the memories that will continue to come.
Tomorrow is the annual 3M Harvest Lunch at Covent Garden Market!
From 12:30-1:00pm in the market square, pay a fee of $20 and enjoy a lunch with live music from Genevieve Fisher (A local country artist).
Every $20 ticket goes towards the London Food Coalition, and all donations stay local!
