3 Best Performing Arts Venues in Victoria, British Columbia

Free jazz, classical, and folk concerts; cultural events; and more run all summer at Centennial Square, which is next to city hall. Free lunchtime concerts are offered Tuesday to Thursday from noon to 1, from July through September.

Watch for music events hosted by this group, which also organizes the annual TD Victoria International JazzFest in late June and the Vancouver Island Blues Bash in early September.

With everything from solo performances to chamber music concerts to full-scale orchestral works, the Victoria Symphony has something for everyone. Watch for Symphony Splash on the first Sunday in August, when the orchestra plays a free concert, accompanied by fireworks, from a barge in the Inner Harbour.
