The band The Long Shots is playing a live concert at Black Wheat Brewing in Brandon, Manitoba, on March 13, 2026. The show is set to begin at 7:00 p.m. as part of an effort by the Brandon Downtown BIZ to bring more people to the city centre during the evening.

The brewery is located at 402 10th Street and was opened by brewmaster Umber Awasthi in 2021. The tasting room can hold about 75 people, creating an up-close experience for those attending the performance.

This event is part of a larger plan to host lively gatherings that help the downtown area feel like a safe and busy place to visit after work hours. The local business group, which was restarted in 2023 and is led by Executive Director Emmy Sanderson, uses these performances to show progress in the community.

By bringing visitors to the brewery, organizers hope to see a boost for other nearby restaurants and shops as well. The goal is to turn the heart of the city into a destination for entertainment and social events throughout the year.
