It's a busy event season!

So exciting - We will have an Octet performing from the Vancouver Chamber Choir @ the Scandinavian Centre on December 06, 2024 for our 107 Finland Independence Day Dinner & Dance Celebration 🎵🎤🎶

All eight of the professional singers of the Vancouver Chamber Choir that will be performing at the Finnish Independence Day event at the Scandinavian Centre toured Finland in the summer of 2023 and have fond memories of the long June summer nights and verdant nature. They will be delighted to perform a selection of Finnish music from their Sounds of Finland concert (Nov 29). All the music performed will be in the Finnish language, including a folk song that touches upon immigration to Northern America. 🇫🇮

Book your tickets by going to finlandvancouver.com. You can book 3 ways. 🎟️
