many different venues around town, and this serves to
spread the music around. As a result, visitors get lots of interaction
with local community members, and the locals have the opportunity to
experience the magic of the festival. Each of the concert venues offers
something different and special to the choirs and their audiences.
The Kathaumixw Gala concerts are held in the Great Hall.
Over a period of weeks before International Choral Kathaumixw, the Great
Hall is transformed from a community arena into a concert hall to
accommodate the festival’s large events and the common song performances
which feature the combined voices of more than 1500 Kathaumixw
participants. Dozens of volunteers work tirelessly to ready this venue,
erecting structures and even adding a false ceiling to create the best
sound quality possible. The Great Hall has a seating capacity of 3000.
