Hannah Montana Concert Set to Premiere in Canada on Family Channel

TORONTO, July 10: Astral Media’s Family Channel in Canada will this month broadcast the Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert 3D—the latest in a summer offering of exclusive music-themed Disney programming.

The movie concert will air July 26 at 8 p.m., day and date with the U.S. premiere on the Disney Channel. The concert features performances by Cyrus and special guests the Jonas Brothers. The movie documents the Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus sold out, 70-date Best of Both Worlds Tour. The theatrical release broke numerous box office records, including highest-grossing concert movie.

Viewers can buy 3-D glasses to watch the movie at Wal-Mart stores with the proceeds going to the Breakfast Clubs of Canada.

In the run-up to the movie, the Family Channel will host a Hannah Montana Rock Star Weekend starting at 3 p.m. July 26, which will include ten back-to-back Hannah Montana episodes.

Cyrus stars in the series Hannah Montana, which follows Hannah as she lives her double life as an ordinary teenager by day and an international singing sensation by night. It airs daily at 5:30 p.m. on Family Channel. Season three premieres in November.
