Produced by Help Ukraine Vancouver Island Society and the Ukrainian-Canadian Cultural Society of Vancouver Island, the concert will feature stunning performances by Veselka Ukrainian Dancers and LADO Strings, along with other local artists. The evening will blend both traditional Ukrainian and Canadian holiday music, offering something for everyone in the family, making this concert a perfect way to celebrate the season of giving.
The event will also serve as a fundraiser for Help Ukraine Vancouver Island Society, an organization that provides crucial support to displaced Ukrainians on Vancouver Island. Proceeds from ticket sales and donations will go directly toward helping families and individuals who have fled the conflict in Ukraine, providing them with essential services, resources, and community support as they rebuild their lives in Canada.
“We are honored to host this festive and meaningful event in support of displaced Ukrainians on Vancouver Island,” said Colin Plant, Saanich Councillor and emcee. “This concert will not only showcase the incredible cultural richness of Ukraine, but it will also bring our community together to make a tangible difference in the lives of those who need our help.”
The concert is family-friendly and suitable for all ages. It promises to be an unforgettable evening of music, dance, and community spirit, where attendees can enjoy both beloved holiday tunes and traditional Ukrainian melodies. With a focus on unity and cultural exchange, this concert will offer something for everyone, from festive classics to deeply moving Ukrainian carols, as well as Ukrainian treats and baked goods for sale. An online Silent Auction will be available December 2-21, 2024.
