10 must-see concerts in Toronto this June

Must-see concerts in Toronto for June 2019 include shows that still have tickets, which means there's still time to catch lots of Canadian talent like the Arkells, Alexisonfire and Death From Above 1979. Lionel Richie is also dropping by and U.S. Girls is here.
