Courtenay Recreation Table of Contents
One of Courtenay’s most popular annual events is the free Simms Summer Concert Series. Every year, talented musicians bring their energy to Simms Park on Sunday evenings until the end of August, featuring local, national, and even international performers. By popular demand, some return year over year, offering an evening of musical entertainment near the heart of downtown Courtenay. This year’s concerts launch June 4, starting with the amazing Mark R. Isfeld School Band. Check it out! Learn more at www.courtenay.ca/simms
