Via Surrey BC Events

Music lovers of all types and calibres, we come bearing some super awesome news. The beloved City of Surrey is working towards supporting and fostering the Surrey music industry & scene. The initiative aims at creating new opportunities that support artists, venues, economic growth, tourism, and investment. And while this alone would be music to our ears, the way they are doing it is even better.

City of Surrey has been working with a consultant since last October to design a strategy that would take the Surrey music industry forward. But they also want the residents and music stakeholders to be able to contribute to the efforts by way of feedback and recommendations.

They recently launched a community engagement website, where you (musician, expert, business or community member) can voice your opinions, give feedback on the pandemic and current music economy and share recommendations on how the Surrey music industry can be improved going forward!
