Rock the Coliseum @ Mississauga City Hall, Mississauga, ON - Fri Aug 16th & Sat Aug 17th!

Whether it be air-tight funk, a captivating professional break dancing battle with live music, psychedelic rock, gritty alt-blues, angular post punk or different flavours of acoustic soul, RTC has done its best to represent the music community as a whole. Our goal is to create a tasty mash-up of sounds and serve it up fresh to our increasingly eclectic music community. We believe we have put together a diverse, inclusive line-up that features slices of the best independent Canadian music available in the GTA.

RTC is presented by TD Canada, and is a production of the Canadian Community Arts Initiative.
