Come Home Year
Relax with live local music from around the province, a glass* with friends, a tasting plate of local delicacies and the sun setting over the best view in the city.
A Taste of Home is an exclusive new evening experience of Newfoundland and Labrador’s signature cultural landmark, The Rooms, developed just for Come Home Year. Each ticket includes a tasting plate of local delicacies, a drink (alcholic or non), a takeaway memento box and an admission voucher to return during regular opening hours to view current exhibitions.
Music by Karla Pilgrim. Three time MusicNL award winner and two time ECMA nominee, Roddickton, Newfoundland and Labrador native Karla Pilgrim has spent the last 15 years winning over audiences from coast to coast. From performing for troops in The Middle East, May of 2007, to opening multiple sold out shows for country music superstar Tim McGraw in August 2015 at the Mile One Stadium in St. Johns, NL, Pilgrim's experience as a performer knows no boundaries.
Tickets are $60 per person (10% discount for Rooms Members)
