Posted on by Michelle Garrigo

Delicious Pinkberry goodness, live perfomance by the hot and upcoming band BONNIE DUNE, plus a fabulous crowd of people…it was the perfect swirl for an amazing experience!

Park Royal Village in West Vancouver was definitely the place to be yesterday evening, for the official launch of Pinkberry’s first Canadian location! October 17 Media did not miss this event, we were there!

Spotted: Cory Monteith from Glee!

Yes, the Glee star was there – rocking out on the drums! Bonnie Dune played six great songs and spent time greeting fans, taking photos, signing autographs and answering questions. There was love all around!
