Time after time, Cyndi Lauper has performed for Vancouver all through the night.
But on Aug. 21, Lauper will do it one final time. The 80s pop star is on her farewell tour, unless she has a change of heart, and Vancouver's turn is here at last.
The "Girls Just Want to Have Fun" singer released 12 studio albums over her career and wrote the music for the hit Broadway musical Kinky Boots. Along the way, she's gotten three-quarters of the way to an EGOT (she just needs an Oscar) and was recently inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Opening for the iconic singer is Jake Wesley Rogers, who was a contestant on America's Got Talent at age 15 before pursuing a career as a pop musician.
The show is expected to begin at 7:30 p.m.
Tickets
Plenty of tickets are still available for Lauper's last show in Vancouver at a variety of price points. Cheaper tickets are available at $31 ($49 with fees).
For fans who want to get close to the stage, floor seats are running $230 after fees.
Transportation
TransLink hasn't issued significant alerts for the SkyTrain or SeaBus on Thursday as of the time of publishing.
For fans on Vancouver Island, Hullo ferries has a sailing from Vancouver Harbour to Nanaimo at 11:59 p.m. It arrives Island-side at 1:10 a.m.
Restrictions
A few things aren't allowed in Rogers Arena for the show. Notably, some bags won't be permitted; all bags need to be under 35.5 cm by 35.5 cm by 15.2 cm. For reference, 35.5 cm is just a bit over 13 inches.
Rogers Arena is also a smoke-free zone, as far as cigarettes and cannabis are concerned. The band may have smoke machines.
Other common-sense items, like skateboards, selfie sticks and outside food and drinks, should be left at home.
Cashless venue
Rogers Arena is a cashless venue.
"Concession, retail stands, and hospitality will exclusively accept contactless forms of payment," states the venue's website.
Fan service
Rogers Arena has a fan service number to text if there are any issues during the show: 604-765-3267.
Concert-goers can text their issue and their location (their section, row, and seat number) and get help.
