Victoria’s Ready to Rock the Worlds!

The 2013 Ford World Men’s Curling Championship is coming to Victoria, March 30-April 7 in the Save-On-Foods Memorial Centre – the scene of the 2005 showdown where Alberta’s Randy Ferbey won his fourth world title. While the greatest show on pebbled ice plays out in the arena, the party of a lifetime will be heating up right next door in the Victoria Curling Club, home to The Original 16 Patch. The Patch is the place where fans get together for a beverage and a bite when the draws are all wrapped up.  And, everyone knows, there’s a great band just waiting to light up the night! The Timebenders, Victoria’s favourite show band, are tuning up to start off the fun Friday, March 29 at Fan Appreciation Night – an exclusive evening reserved for full event pass holders. But, there’s lots more live entertainment on tap all week long.  Check out this lineup, and keep in mind, your same-day ticket to the competition in the Save-On-Foods Memorial Centre includes complimentary admission to the party in The Original 16 Patch!
