Live & Local Summer Live Music Concert Series
The program in North Vancouver used to be called the Summer Outdoor Concert Music Series. In previous years there were cultural events too, but not anymore. Now known simply as Live & Local, the series is just 100% awesome music. Some really great bands participate.
In 2026 the series features more than 20 free shows on select dates in the summer. There are six concerts at Lynn Valley Village, five in Seylynn Park, four at Lions Gate Village, four in Panorama Park, four in Ray Perrault Park, and one in Edgemont Village.
