Pat's Night

In 2000, when Craig was just 10 years old, he lost his mom, Pat, to a 5-year battle with cancer. Pat spent her final days at Rosedale Hospice. The services, staff and volunteers at Hospice Calgary always stuck with Craig and his family. Pat left behind 5 kids and her husband, Steve. For 10 years, the family ran the Pat McFarlane Cancer Research Foundation. But in 2019, Craig wanted to do something a little different. Pat's Concert was born. Featuring a silent auction, live music and a night of laughter and tears, the concert raises funds for Hospice Calgary's Children's Grief Centre, to help families like Craig's. In 2025, the name of the evening changed to Pat's Night.

​

Between our 5 concerts that have happened, we have raised over $38,000 for the Children's Grief Centre. 

​

Our most recent event was held Oct 19th, 2024 at Tool Shed Brewing with a performance by Melody Stang & DJ Dylan Tate. We raised $14,125 for the Children's Grief Centre.​​​​

This year, Pat's Night is once again happening at Tool Shed on Oct 25th. Tickets are now available.
