TORONTO – Australian pop sensation Cody Simpson will headline Family Channel’s 2014 Big Ticket Summer Concerts that this year will make three stops across the country.

Concerts will take place in Halifax (Friday, August 22; Halifax Metro Centre), Toronto (Saturday, August 23; Molson Canadian Amphitheatre) and Edmonton (Monday, August 25; Northern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium).  Concert lovers can beat the rush by tuning into Family on Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. ET/PT, for an encore presentation of the 2013 Big Ticket Summer Concert and watching for a special pre-sale code which can be entered immediately at Family.ca to purchase tickets to any of the three concert locations.  A limited quantity of tickets will also be available in advance of the public on-sale date on June 6 at 10:00 AM.

Austin & Ally star Calum Worthy will host the concert tour, which also includes performances by Sabrina Carpenter, who stars as Maya Hart in the new series Girl Meet World; YouTube phenomenon Megan Nicole, whose music videos are featured on Family; and, making a special appearance at the Toronto show, pop rock band, Crystalyne.

Later this month, Family.ca will host two contests: the ‘My Concert, My T-Shirt Contest’, which offers budding fashion designers and amateur artists the chance to submit their designs for a limited edition concert tee; and the ‘LEGO Friends VIP Experience Contest’, where viewers can enter for the chance to win an once-in-a-lifetime trip for four to the Toronto show.
