Downtown Street Beats Returns

Until August 29
Monday to Friday, 12pm – 2pm

Lighten up your summer work week with a mid-day entertainment treat. Awe-inspiring street performers exhilarate crowds in Downtown Vancouver for the second annual Downtown Street Beats Summer Busker Series! Bring your lunch to the daily venue (rotates between London Drugs at Granville and Georgia, the Vancouver Art Gallery and Canada Place) between 12 noon to 2pm for free entertainment including sultry female vocalists to Mariachi bands or breakdancers and more.

30 world class buskers, 5 days a week, 2 shows a day, 3 fantastic venues, zero cost… but if you like what you see, be sure to make a donation when the hat is passed around!

The Downtown Street Beats Summer Busker Series is brought to you by the DVBIA, Canada Line Rapid Transit and Canada Place.
