What to Expect

At the Mission Twilight Concert Series you can expect to see between 100 and up to about 700 people in lawn chairs and on blankets enjoying an evening of live music in the park. Average attendance is up to about 400, but it depends on the featured band and the weather.

There is usually a bit of food for sale and the park has a play area nearby for kids. There is also a restaurant at the park and folks on its outdoor patio have good views of the concert.

A lot of the attendees are from Mission, but folks come from other parts of the Fraser Valley and Lower Mainland too.

Tips & Advice

Below are some tips to help you make the most of your experience at the event.

TIP #1: Take a blanket or chair to sit on, and an umbrella if it looks like rain.

TIP #2: Explore the region while you’re in the area. Rolley Lake Provincial Park and Stave Falls aren’t too far away.

TIP #3: Coming via the Lougheed Highway, the turnoff is at Stave Lake Street. From there turn right at 5th Avenue and you’ll find the park at the end of the street.
