FRIDAY | Philharmonic Orchestra X Thursday LGBTQ+ NIGHT (Vivek Shraya) | Calgary

Just a bar, everyone single. Because the world in 2026 is all about meeting IRL, not on dating apps!

Join us for a QUEER ONLY singles night at the Orchestra! 🎻✨

We’re grabbing a row of seats at Jack Singer Hall and heading to "Vivek Shraya: One Night Only."

Before the show, there’ll be time to mingle and meet other queer singles, then we’ll settle in and enjoy the music together. No awkward setups, no pressure — just a really great night out with people who enjoy the arts and culture scene too.

Perfect if you:
• love live music (or want an excuse to dress up)
• want to try a new way to meet other queer singles
• are into arts and culture and want to connect with someone who would go to future shows with you

PRE-MINGLE:

For our pre-mingle we will meet at James Joyce Pub (114 8 Ave SW, Calgary, AB T2P 1B3) for drinks / food from 6pm - 7pm. We will then do the 4 minute walk to the Jack Singer Concert Hall.

If you are coming to the pub please look for a group with pink lanyards!
