  • teen music phenom Thomas Backman as House DJ
  • performances by familiar faces, including Jonathan Emile
  • magic tricks by The Amazing Todsky

  • plus a whole lot of surprise guests and special activities!

There’s also an online auction where you can bid on fashion apparel, jewellery, gift certificates, and more.

What: Geordie’s 40th celebrations!
