Symphony at Sunset

A free open-air concert by the full Vancouver Symphony Orchestra under Music Director Otto Tausk, in partnership with the Vancouver Board of Parks and Recreation. For 2026, the event temporarily relocates to David Lam Park due to a Metro Vancouver water supply tunnel project at the usual Sunset Beach site. Program includes classical favourites and selections from blockbuster film scores including Harry Potter and Star Wars.
