The 2026 PK Slam, sponsored by HDR, will be at The Concert Hall in Toronto, a historic building that has featured marquee performers ranging from Frank Sinatra to Iggy Pop, The Ramones and Cure to Queen Latifah and the latest touring bands today.

About the Masonic Temple
Frank Sinatra used to rent the building for private parties, and the Rolling Stones used the space as a summer rehearsal studio for years. The building narrowly escaped demolition in 1997 by being declared a heritage site (the ‘lucky’ 888 address was coveted by developers). CTV bought it in 1998 as a news bureau and venue for the Mike Bullard show. MTV took over in 2006, and, despite closing the Concert Hall, still managed to cage a performance from U2 in 2009.

MTV decided to up-stakes and move down to Queen Street in 2012, but the Temple only had to wait a year before Info-Tech Research Group bought and thoroughly renovated it. The Concert Hall has been opened for special events, like listening sessions lead by Jimmy Page, concerts by Luke and the Apostles and Platinum Blond, boxing events, and much more. Now that 888 Yonge Inc. has the reins, we can expect more fantastic events in this beautiful, historic space.

Yesterday, Mpact and our CEO, Kammy Horne, hit the road (on the bus!) alongside incredible partners at AARP California, AARP Sacramento, and Sacramento Regional Transit District.

We took a ride on Route 86 along Marysville Boulevard and Grand Avenue—revisiting the area where a walk/roll audit was conducted last year.

It was inspiring to see community members, transit advocates, and leaders come together before, during, and after the ride to discuss:
- The current state of local transit
- Tangible improvements made since last year’s audit
- Valuable resources and insights shared by AARP, SacRT, and Mpact

Collaborative efforts like this remind us why community-driven planning matters. Thank you to everyone who joined the conversation and continues to champion accessible, connected neighborhoods!
