The Whistler Summer Concert Series returns for 2026, bringing free outdoor music to Whistler Olympic Plaza all summer long. Set against a beautiful mountain backdrop, this beloved concert series fills the Village with live music, dancing, picnic blankets, and laid-back summer energy.

Featuring a stacked lineup of Canadian icons, international touring artists, local favourites, DJs, and special performances, the Whistler Summer Concert Series is one of the best ways to spend a summer evening in the Village. Pick up takeout from a nearby restaurant, bring a blanket or low chair, and settle in for a night of free live music under the mountains.

Squamish Lil’wat Cultural Centre Ambassadors will welcome visitors before each performance on behalf of the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Nation and the Líl̓wat7úl Nation, whose shared territories Whistler is located on.
