Date: Oct 3, 2025
Madison Violet is a JUNO-nominated duo featuring Lisa MacIsaac and Brenley MacEachern.

With their signature harmonies, soul-stirring storytelling, and a catalog of award-winning songs, Madison Violet has touched hearts around the world. Now, they’re hitting the road one last time—playing shows across Canada, the UK, and Europe—to thank fans for an incredible journey. Expect an evening filled with your favourite songs, a few surprises, and a whole lot of love as Madison Violet brings their legacy to the stage one more time.
