Last night was truly one to remember for country music fans in Moose Jaw! A sold-out crowd filled the Temple Gardens Centre for an unforgettable evening with none other than Shania Twain.
The night kicked off with an electric set from Lindsay Ell, who opened the show with a mix of new songs and fan favourites—including “Right On Time” and her first Canadian #1, “Criminal.” After a short intermission—and a surprise cameo from Shania’s adorable puppy, who strolled across the stage—Lindsay returned to join Shania and the band. And from that moment on, the magic truly began.
From that moment on, the night unfolded like a dream. Shania invited a local Moose Jaw girl named Golden on stage to sing "Giddy Up", and later, the crowd celebrated a proposal. Shania welcomed the newly engaged couple, Alisha and Nancy, up on stage and serenaded them with “Make You Feel My Love”—the country version famously recorded by Garth Brooks for the 1998 film Hope Floats.
There was dancing, singing, and more than a few joyful tears throughout the night. The entire show felt incredibly personal—an intimate, once-in-a-lifetime experience right here in Moose Jaw.
It was amazing to see so many generations in the audience—from parents bringing their kids to their first concert, to lifelong fans who’ve been with Shania since the beginning.
Forever and for always, Moose Jaw—you show up in the best way. Let’s hope Shania felt the love and brings it back again real soon!
