CBC's free outdoor concerts, Musical Nooners, returns after five-year hiatus

Guess what's back after a five-year hiatus? CBC's free outdoor concert series, Musical Nooners! It's the ultimate summer lunchtime destination at our CBC outdoor plaza in Vancouver that's free, fun, and family-friendly.

Every Wednesday from July 2 to August 20, join us at 700 Hamilton St. (between Robson St. and W Georgia) from 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m. for the perfect midweek break filled with tunes, talent, and good times. Hosted by your favourite CBC personalities, Musical Nooners will offer an array of different artists and musical styles each week, celebrating the diverse sounds of British Columbia.

Whether you're a downtown office worker on your lunch break, local resident, or a strolling tourist looking for something to see, we've got a spot for you on the plaza! Attendees can relax on the lawn and benches, eat their lunch, socialise with their friends and family, and vibe out to the lively music.

Beyond the tunes, audience members can enjoy artist Q&As, chances to win some CBC swag, and so much more! Plus, you can follow along for live updates and social engagement on our CBC British Columbia TikTok page.

Are you ready for the sounds of summer? Our fresh weekly lineup is below, so mark your calendars and make your Wednesdays even more exciting!
