The City of Victoria has released its annual CityVibe guide promoting festivals and outdoor events happening in the city all summer. The city also presents Summer in The Square lunchtime concerts in Centennial Square and Afternoon Concerts in The Park at Cameron Bandshell in Beacon Hill Park. New this year is the Folk Music Evening Series happening Tuesday nights in July and August at Cameron Bandshell.
We have added as many shows to our calendar with artist links as we could so you can explore the mostly local talent performing.
CityVibe is available in hard copy and online. To view the 2016 CityVibe guide, CLICK HERE.
