We have an exciting lineup of talented artists and performers this year. The afternoon will kick off with Cruise Control, a local band that specializes in rock, pop, and country-rock cover songs guaranteed to get you moving!

In the afternoon, we’re pleased to welcome Mike Norden. Voted Children’s Magician of the Year 15 times! His humour-filled show and wacky antics are sure to be a hit with the whole family.

Ending off the afternoon’s entertainment, we’re pleased to welcome back Deep Cove Big Band! Expect a fun mix of Big Band classics and newer material. These folks are no strangers to Community Day and we’re thrilled to have them back and celebrating our 25th anniversary.
