Music at the Gulf of Georgia Cannery in 2025
The Gulf of Georgia Cannery NHS is a museum that showcases the salmon canning-related history of Steveston Village. In the summer it’s also a venue for performances by a different local band each week.
After not happening in recent years, the series of shows is back in 2025! Music at the Cannery is a great event that supports the museum, the Gulf of Georgia Cannery Society and local musicians.
Where and When
The Cannery’s address is 12138 Fourth Avenue in Steveston Village. The performances usually happen outside on the Tank Deck (which is like a courtyard). On days with poor weather, the shows may take place indoors at the museum.
Music at the Cannery takes place on Friday evenings between mid-July and early August. Tickets are only available in-person. They can be purchased at the Cannery in advance or starting at 5:30 pm on the day of the show. The performances begin at 6:30 pm. Seating is limited and on a first-come, first-served basis.
