Music in the Park

Wednesday nights in July & August in Pioneer Park

Join us Wednesday nights in Pioneer Park (corner of West Saanich Rd and Clarke Rd) from 6:30-8:30. There's parking at the library, or you can walk or bike to the park. Bring a blanket or lawn chair and a picnic dinner, or buy dinner from one of our vendors.   We sell 50/50 tickets each week to help us cover our costs, so remember to bring your $5!   

Last year, we added an extra small evening concert. It was such a success, we plan to add extra shows at the Brentwood Bay Village Empourium this coming summer as well, all on a Thursday evening. This gives us the opportunity to present workshops and smaller intimate concerts featuring touring BC musicians.

Aug 8 - Elli Hart and the Dirty Mountain

If Fleetwood Mac and Bonnie Raitt decided to make music together, you’d  end up with Elli Hart. Whether playing solo or with her backing band,  Dirty Mountain, Hart is one of those timeless artists that mesmerizes  while she delivers gut-wrenching waves of self-realization and  deliverance you won’t soon forget.

About Music in the Park

For over 16 years we've hosted our outdoor concerts, and have helped other municipalities set up their own outdoor concerts. We're very proud of our all-ages event, which brings the community together each week.  

We are now accepting submissions for 2018. If you wish to have your band considered for MIP, submit your bio and EPK to our email: brentwoodbayinfo@gmail.com 

We are looking for polished, experienced bands that can  connect with the 

audience and play great, original music.  

We're looking for creative & engaging music that will suit an audience ages 0-100.

Please check out the bands from last year, and see if your band fits the bill. PLEASE NOTE: due to the high number of submissions we receive each year, we cannot reply to each submission. We will only contact those we are booking. 

We rarely book cover bands.
