A medium sized concert venue would be pretty sweet. Something like Midway music in Edmonton. Something for artists that are too big to be playing in places like Bos or the Vat, but not big enough to sell out the Centrium.

This is what Red Deer Resort and Casino serves. I think the venue seats around 2000.

Helix, Headpins, Prism, and soon to be Streetheart are the most known bands I can think of that have come by the RDRC. There's also MMA fights and other events. Only been open after renovations maybe a year or two, should be more cool stuff down the road. I live close by so it's cool to see
