In 1998, Atis Bankas arrived in Niagara-on-the-Lake with a vision to establish both a music school and a summer festival in one of Canada’s most picturesque communities. What began as a modest initiative quickly gained momentum, growing into a beloved cultural fixture.

Music Niagara is dedicated to presenting world-class performances across a range of genres in intimate settings, inspiring and engaging audiences throughout the Niagara Region.

The 2026 summer season features 19 concerts, from June 14 to August 14, at venues across Niagara-on-the-Lake, including the debut of a women-led Summer Jazz Series, the popular Pops Series, and the return of standout performers such as Toronto All-Star Big Band, The Undercovers, Quartetto Gelato, and Canadian Duelling Pianos.

Céleste Music Early Keyboard FestivalIn partnership with the Town of Newmarket, Céleste Music presents its inaugural Early Keyboard Festival at the Serpa Galleries in Old Town Hall. This immersive event transforms the gallery into a living exhibition of sound, brought to life through concerts, lectures, and student performances.

At its core are five exceptional public concerts showcasing Céleste Music’s extraordinary collection of historical keyboards, performed by a roster of world-renowned performers and experts in historical performance.

We are especially thrilled to debut several newly acquired historical keyboards — presented for the very first time in North America. Guests are invited to explore the instruments up close, connect with the artists, and experience a vibrant celebration of music, art, and discovery.

2020 SUMMER MUSIC GUIDE

Welcome to The WholeNote’s 16th annual Green Pages guide to summer music! To state the obvious, it is not "business as usual" this summer due to the pandemic. Nevertheless, we invited summer music festivals, the usual way, to let you know what they're up to and how they are adapting to the times. We've received the responses listed below, some to say they have cancelled outright, others to say they are offering live-streamed and other online events they hope you’ll tune in to, and still others to say “Like many of you, we don’t know what is coming next yet, but please stay tuned.” So have a look at the profiles presented here, to stay connected to the music you love and the creative artists and individuals who are pivoting to other platforms in these unusual times. Wishing you all a happy and healthy summer!
