What’s On

Check out our lineup of amazing local talent. From blues to salsa, Motown to movies, we’ve got you covered! Upcoming artists include:

• Big Smoke Brass Band

  Sun Aug 27 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

  Born on the streets of Toronto in 2017, Big Smoke Brass is a leading voice in the Canadian brass scene. Dedicated to fostering community and connecting people through their high-energy music, the band has given hundreds of performances across Canada and released a growing discography of original music and videos. Wherever you may be, Big Smoke Brass is determined to share their love of music with you.

• One Song Glory

  Sun Aug 27 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

  Presented by Union and Musical Stage Co., ONE SONG GLORY is a free series of youth musical theatre training intensive that builds community, self-confidence, and self-expression through a combination of new music creation, masterclasses, rehearsal, and a public showcase. Our goal is to offer performing and non-performing participants a professional creation and rehearsal experience, insight about the industry, the chance to create new work, and the guidance to develop a fruitful career in the performing arts. With One Song Glory youth will come together to train and create under the guidance of theatre professionals in a positive and encouraging environment.

• Bantü Salsa

  Sun Aug 27 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm

  Since its early days in 2019, Bantü Salsa has been characterized by its originality. Getting Latin beats to cohabit with the poetic strings of the kora, or delicately orchestrated brass instruments to join with mighty percussions, is a wild challenge that has been mastered thanks to the passion and talent of its members. Bantü Salsa’s members are among the artists who dream of highlighting the multicultural wealth of Québec and of Montréal through music.
