Canada’s Great Kitchen Party Celebrates Another Year of Canadian Excellence In Support of MusiCounts, Community Food Centres Canada and B2ten Toronto, ON – Starting on October 22, Canada’s Great Kitchen Party, in partnership with MusiCounts, Community Food Centres Canada and B2ten, are inviting Canadians to enjoy a podium-worthy meal from a local culinary legend, and an online show featuring some of Canada's most iconic musicians. “For fifteen years we have been staging large events in thirteen cities across Canada and have raised close to 17 million dollars for charities. Our pivot this year, to intimate dinners in homes or private settings and an online show with over 20 amazing Canadian musicians, is being very well received," said Kitchen Party Co-Founder Karen Blair. “Our vision in 2020 is to support the Canadian culinary community, Canadian musicians and our three chosen charities - all who have been greatly impacted because of the pandemic. These are challenging times. The evenings will bring some joy and hope into people's homes as we celebrate Canadian resilience and a renewed shared hope and commitment for a better Canada" From October 22 to October 30, five virtual events will take place across Canada, where participants choose a ready to serve 3-course meal prepared by one of the competing chefs, and enjoy a virtual show by legendary Canadian performers. Curated by Jim Cuddy of Blue Rodeo, the show will feature acts from Ed Robertson, Serena Ryder, Alan Doyle, Barney Bentall, Johnny Reid, Whitehorse, Eagle and Hawk, William Prince, Anne Lindsay, Danny Michel, Terra Lightfoot, Gord Bamford, Joel Plaskett and many more! It will also include cameo appearances from Rick Mercer, Chris Hadfield, Tessa Virtue, Sacha and more.
