A massive international sporting event is coming to Vancouver this winter, and they’re bringing some of music’s biggest stars along for the party.

Invictus Games Vancouver Whistler 2025, presented by ATCO and Boeing, features 11 sports competitions from February 8 to 16.

The first-ever Winter Hybrid Invictus Games has also announced that Noah Kahan will perform at the opening ceremony at BC Place on Saturday, February 8.

“I’m so excited to announce that I’ll be performing at the Invictus Games in Vancouver, Canada on February 8,” said Kahan on CTV’s eTalk. “There are going to be so many amazing, brave athletes there. I’m obviously not included in that list, but I’ll be singing my sad songs. [It”s] the cold time of year, so they pick a musician that likes to sing about being cold and uncomfortable.

“I can’t wait to perform the songs for you there. Really looking forward to it. Vancouver, we’ll see you soon.”

Grammy-nominated Noah Kahan first rose to fame in 2017 when his first single “Young Blood” drew the attention of indie-folk lovers across North America. Since then, the “Stick Season” and “Dial Drunk” singer has experienced critical acclaim, global touring, and numerous collaborations with big names like platinum-selling artist Post Malone.

Grammy winner Nelly Furtado and Juno nominee Roxane Bruneau will also perform at the opening ceremony.
