Two Cities. Two Weekends. One Purpose.
Toronto: June 11-14, 2026
New York City: June 18-21, 2026
In a world that moves quickly, this experience is a pause.
It is an opportunity to connect across differences, reflect together, and remember the power of shared stories.
The Story Behind the Experience
This experience is inspired by Whispers in the Rain, a book by author Hal Eisenberg that explores growth, healing, and presence through life’s quieter moments.
Rather than centering spectacle, this gathering centers people. It is about listening, reflecting, and building community through shared stories and lived experience.

Outlet
Outlet isn’t just entertainment.
It’s nearly three decades of friendship.
It’s over $100,000 raised for charities.
It’s continuity.
It’s legacy.
This isn’t a hired band. It’s Hal’s band - a 28-year NYC rock group that has performed thousands of shows while building community through music and giving back.
Their presence transforms Saturday night from “a concert” into something deeper. It becomes the gathering point.
The celebration. The moment when story, impact, and connection come alive.
Music has always been one of the ways this community comes together to heal, to give, and to elevate. Saturday night reflects that history.
This is not entertainment added to an event. It’s part of the story.
