VS VIRTUAL AUCTION 

Back again this year is a VS fan-favourite, our Virtual Auction. The Gala Committee has been hard at work for months collecting a wide range of exclusive and desirable auction items valued at over $35,000. Item highlights include exclusive musical experiences, trips to Tofino and Whistler, a Seattle Symphony getaway, local shopping, dining and arts experiences, tickets to our 2025 Yo-Yo Ma concert, and many more!

The virtual auction bidding opens at 9:00 am on Sunday, April 28 and closes at 9:00 pm on Sunday, May 5.

Join us for an extraordinary night to remember! This black tie affair includes a champagne reception, gourmet dinner with specially curated wines, and showcases a private concert with the Victoria Symphony. This year we are pleased to welcome renowned pianist Lorraine Min, VS Concertmaster Terence Tam, and the musicians of the Victoria Symphony, led by Music Director Christian Kluxen, Principal Pops Conductor Sean O’Loughlin, and Associate Conductor Giuseppe Pietraroia.

Most importantly you will be a part of supporting the Victoria Symphony’s talented musicians and our youth education programs, which provide free and accessible music education and experiences to thousands of children and youth in our community.
