The Rogers Hometown Hockey Tour is working with Manitoba Music on the local musical component of its upcoming winter event, which will roll into communities across Canada this season with a weekend of free outdoor hockey festivities for all ages. Each tour stop is full of activities, prizes, giveaways, and live music from local bands culminating in an outdoor viewing party of an NHL game broadcast live every Sunday on Sportsnet and Sportsnet NOW. Ron MacLean and Tara Slone host live on site from the Sportsnet Mobile Studio.
