The Three Concert Series
Mainstage Concerts — Full orchestral programs. Wavelengths (Oct 25) is the announced example, pairing the Russian Easter Overture, Cello Concerto No. 1, Petite Suite, and Polovtsian Dances with Canadian cellist Cameron Crozman.
Chamber Socials — Smaller-scale chamber programs. Impressions (Sep 26) opens the series with French chamber works by Debussy, Ravel, and Françaix.
Family Concerts — Shorter, story-driven programs aimed at younger audiences. Bag o' Bones (Oct 31) sets a Hallowe'en story by Barb Parker to music by Saint-Saëns and Dvořák.
Festival North (Summer 2026)
Festival North runs August 3-11, 2026 and is presented jointly by the Orchestra North Summer Program, the Prince George Conservatory of Music, and the Prince George Symphony Orchestra. It is a separate event from the 2026-27 subscription season, so season tickets do not necessarily cover it — check the Festival North page for its own details.
