Victoria, BC, July 22, 2026 – The David Foster Foundation today announced that the Victoria Symphony unfortunately will not be accompanying David Foster and Friends at the Foundation’s free 40th Anniversary Victoria Harbour Concert.
David Foster remains dedicated to bringing a free, world-class concert to the City of Victoria in celebration of the David Foster Foundation’s 40th Anniversary. This special evening is our way of thanking the community that has supported the Foundation for four decades while celebrating the thousands of Canadian families whose lives have been touched through the Foundation’s work.
Audiences can look forward to an unforgettable evening featuring more than 10 internationally acclaimed artists, extraordinary performances, and numerous exciting surprises throughout the night. From beginning to end, the Harbour Concert promises to be an inspiring celebration of music, generosity, and community.
“We are committed to delivering an exceptional experience for everyone attending,” said David Foster. “This concert is about bringing people together through music, and we can’t wait to share an incredible evening with the people of Victoria.”
One thing has not changed: this concert is happening, it is free, and it will be one of the most exciting live entertainment events Victoria has ever experienced. This is a night you won’t want to miss.
Additional announcements and event details will be released soon.
