If you are looking for a mid-week pick-me-up that also supports a great cause, head over to Dina’s Tavern on Spadina this Wednesday, May 20. Toronto’s beloved classic rock outfit, The Mid-Century Modernes, are taking the stage for a special three-set performance dedicated to raising funds for the Toronto Humane Society.

More Than Just Music Beyond the classic rock hits, the evening features a unique educational component. The Toronto Humane Society will be giving a short presentation on their rat adoption program. It is a fantastic opportunity to learn more about these often-misunderstood pets and perhaps even meet your future companion. The band and the organization are teaming up to raise awareness and encourage adoptions, making this a truly community-driven night out.

Practical Details - **When:** Wednesday, May 20, 2026. Doors and music start at 7:00 p.m. - **Where:** Dina’s Tavern, located at 486 Spadina Ave. in the heart of the neighbourhood. - **Cost:** $15 at the door.

Dina’s Tavern is a classic spot, perfect for a casual night of music. Since you are right on Spadina, you are perfectly positioned to grab a bite at one of the many nearby spots in Chinatown or Kensington Market before the show starts. Come for the tunes, stay for the cause, and maybe leave with a new perspective on rat adoption!
