Free Whitehorse Harmony Day Concert

We have all the world in our backyard: the rich cultural heritage of Whitehorse weaves a proud and colourful social fabric!

We’re pleased to present you an equally colourful Harmony Day Concert, with an incredible line-up of performers that will make your heart sing and your body move.

Come and enjoy powerful First Nations singer and musician Mitch Tambo on stage, supported by high-energy, African Super Mande Percussion Group, evocative and soulful Iranian musician Gelareh Pour, and the mind-blowing Lion Dancers from Hung Gar Yau Shu.

‘Everyone Belongs’ at our free Harmony Day Concert and we want to see you there, celebrating our community and enjoying live music, workshops and activities, food trucks and dance performance.

Make a seed bomb, paint your part in the migratory-eel mural, watch (and taste!) some cooking demonstrations and witness the beautiful dancers from the Victoria Hua Xin Chinese Women's Association. You can also take a tour of Strathdon House itself.

We can’t wait to see you in our shared backyard.

When: Sunday 19 March, 2pm to 5pm

Cost: Free
