The six concerts from March 13 to March 18, as well as the Paralympic Winter Games Closing Ceremony on March 21, will take place at the world-class outdoor amphitheatre, which also played host to the nightly victory ceremonies during the Olympics, which finished here on Sunday.

The headline musical artists are: singer/songwriter Kathleen Edwards (March 13); award-winning indie rock band The Weakerthans (March 14); francophone composer/performer Antoine Gratton (March 15); rockers The Trews (March 16); singer/songwriter Justin Hines (March 17); and Juno winner Serena Ryder (March 18).

Local Whistler artist and fan favourite Chili Tom will act as the nightly pre-show DJ.

Christy Nicolay, the Vancouver 2010 vice-president of sport production and victory ceremonies, said: "We are honoured to celebrate the athletic achievements of the competitors at the 2010 Paralympic Winter Games with a lineup of talent worthy of both our medal winners and the world."

Spectator access is free to the victory ceremonies at Whistler Medals Plaza.

Medals will be awarded in the Paralympic sports of alpine skiing, biathlon and cross-country skiing at Whistler Medals Plaza.

Ice sledge hockey and wheelchair curling medals will be awarded in-venue in Vancouver at the University of British Columbia - also known as the Doug Mitchell Thunderbird Sports Centre - and the Vancouver Paralympic Centre.

From March 19 to 21, Whistler event medals will also be awarded in-venue so the Plaza can prepare for the Closing Ceremony.

Tickets to the Opening Ceremony on March 12 range in price from $30 to $175 and are available now to Canadian residents on a first-come, first-served basis.
