Also on the program will be some authentic international dance and sounds filling the stadium.
Le Fonds de solidarité FTQ will be presenting a group of some 10 musicians that will be vibrating the stadium with Latin sounds, underneath section 128, from the time the gates open at 5:30pm until kickoff and during halftime.
A Haitian percussionist group will be on hand as well.
Also, a Brazilian percussionist group of eight musicians will perform some native samba music, among others, with two Brazilian dancers on hand at the main entrance from 5:30 until 7pm to complete the authentic feeling of the beautiful South American nation.
