The 50th Anniversary Celebration Continues with PAMA Thursdays This Week

Brampton, ON (November 19) – Celebrate PAMA’s 50th anniversary with a special edition of PAMA Thursdays.

Similar to the “First Friday” movement in larger North American cities, PAMA Thursdays is an ambitious adaptation by the Region to create a unique experience for people invested in the local scene. This event will bring together a line-up of Peel-based artists, entertainers, food and craft beverage vendors to the heart of downtown Brampton.
