The Festival of the Sound welcomes visitors to Canada's premier summer classical chamber music festival on the shores of beautiful Georgian Bay. This year we celebrate our tenth festival in the Charles W. Stockey Centre for the Performing Arts. 25 days of almost non-stop music-making fill this happy anniversary, starting with five days specifically designed to showcase the incredible acoustics and warm ambiance of this world-class concert hall. The festival’s main performance venue is located right on the Parry Sound waterfront, marrying beautiful music and a spectacular setting.
The Aurora jazz+ Festival highlights the multicultural fabric of Canada! Jazz+ means the festival includes all possible arts and music genres from reggae to rock, First Nations music to world music, Canadian funk to blues and jazz. Local visual artists display and perform live painting in the park, while diverse vendors prepare and serve foods of the world. Enjoy great music, art, culture, food, beer/wine, kids’ crafts, shopping and the ambiance of the beautiful, heritage Town Park setting located in the cultural core of Aurora, in the centre of York Region.
