Yesterday’s Joy – April 26, 2025 – Matsqui Centennial Auditorium, Abbotsford
Tickets are on sale now for our annual Spring Concert! Join us for an evening of heartwarming melodies and cherished memories.

From timeless classics to modern echoes of the past, let us take you on a journey through the music that has the power to connect us across generations.
Senior, student, and family rates are available! The concert will be performed at the Matsqui Centennial Auditorium in Abbotsford, BC, starting at 7PM.
Don’t miss our Silent Auction – we have received generous donations from all over the Fraser Valley and there is sure to be something for everyone.
