Michael Jackson History is at the River Cree on July 29. JON VAN GRINSVEN HIStory It takes a certain amount of guts to think you can pull off a Michael Jackson homage, but the people behind the HIStory Show seem to have no problem declaring themselves to be the world’s premier live tribute act when it comes to Jackson brother number one. Based around the talent of MJ impersonator Dantanio, the show also features a large complement of singers, dancers and musicians intent on replicating what it was like to see the King of Pop in a live setting, complete with costume changes and lavish sets. By all accounts as close as you’ll get to seeing the original in the flesh. When: Saturday, July 29 at 9 p.m. Where: River Cree Resort & Casino, 300 East Lapotac Boulevard, Enoch Admission: $31.50 to $63, available from Ticketmaster Info: ticketmaster.ca

Bruno Mars hits Rogers Place on July 30. Bruno Mars Just three albums into a career that has earned him multiple Grammy Awards and chart topping singles and it seems that Bruno Mars isn’t going to be slowing down any time soon.

Mars is in town with his latest album, 2016’s 24K Magic, as well as his ridiculously popular single, That’s What I Like. Opening is Camila Cabello. When: Sunday, July 30 at 8 p.m. Where: Rogers Place Admission: $40 to $175, available from Ticketmaster Info: ticketmaster.ca |
