On The Road Again – The Willie Nelson Tribute Show Comes to Capitol 33, Delhi

January 23 & 24, 2026

Delhi, Ontario — Capitol 33 is proud to present On The Road Again – The Willie Nelson Tribute Show, a powerful and authentic musical celebration of one of country music’s most legendary artists. Performances run January 23 & 24, 2026, as part of the Capitol 33 Tribute Concert Series.
Starring Dan Thompson as The Voice of Willie Nelson, this acclaimed production captures the voice, warmth, and storytelling spirit of Willie himself — performing timeless classics such as “Whiskey River,” “Bloody Mary Morning,” “Crazy,” “Always On My Mind,” and “On The Road Again.”
Backing Dan on stage is a lineup of some of Canada’s top country musicians — seasoned professionals who have shared the stage with national touring acts, theatre productions, and recording artists across the country. Together, they bring the unmistakable Willie Nelson sound to life with authenticity and heart.

“Dan Thompson captures not only the sound but the soul of Willie Nelson,” says one fan. “The stories, the humor, and the honesty — it’s all there.”

Beekeeping 101 with Daniel

Is Beekeeping Right for You?

Beekeeping is a rewarding homestead skill — but knowing where to begin can feel overwhelming. If you’ve ever dreamed of harvesting your own raw honey, reducing your reliance on store-bought sugar, or watching bees thrive on your land, this class is the perfect place to start.

Online resources can be confusing, especially since most are American and don’t always apply to our climate or homesteading style here in Southern Ontario. Before you invest time and money into bees, this in-person class will give you the clarity you need.

In this 2-hour session, Daniel will cover:

• The biology of the honey bee

• How much time beekeeping really takes, broken down by season

• Realistic start-up costs and annual maintenance

• Common risks beginners overlook (mites, AFB, and more)

• Ontario beekeeping laws & regulations

• Equipment selection — what you actually need vs. what’s optional

• A true seasonal roadmap: what to expect in Spring, Summer, Fall & Winter here in zone 6a/6b

By the end of this class, you’ll know whether beekeeping is your next homestead passion… or an expensive hobby you’re glad you didn’t jump into blindly.

Daniel will guide you through a comprehensive slideshow and demonstrate inspection techniques using an empty hive. Bring a notebook — there’s lots to learn. A digital copy of the slides will be provided to all participants after the class.

The class fee is $40.00+tax per person ($45.20). Kindly ensure the full payment is made within 24 hours to help streamline the process on our end. When submitting your payment, please include your name and the class you're paying for in the comments section.

If you’re unable to attend the class, please refer to our FAQs for refund details.

Payments can be completed in-store during business hours or via e-transfer to generationsmarketplacepayment@gmail.com.

Thank you for your prompt payment!
