Drive-in Concerts:
These unique drive-in concerts will take place on July 17 and 18, and will allow you to safely experience live music once again!

Modified for safe viewing during the pandemic, the fifth annual concert series formerly attracted thousands to Town Centre Park. This year the Summer Concert Series has been planned as a drive-in event to offer Coquitlam residents a safe way to experience live music once again. Those attending the drive-in shows may either remain in their vehicles or set up chairs in their designated space to enjoy an outdoor concert experience. As part of the City’s commitment to supporting businesses, the 2021 event will also support local eateries.

Live Performances Taped for Viewing On-demand:

Four talented and varied acts will perform 30-minute concerts to registered drive-in participants in the Dr. Charles Best Secondary School parking lot. Limited spots, at $5 per carload, are available for each show. Hosted by MC Delany, the lineup is:
- Redwoods – July 17, 6:00pm (online premiere July 23):
Classic rock and soul that blends soulful vocals, guitar harmonies and dynamic songwriting, with a sound reminiscent of 1970s hard rock and 1990s grunge.

- Duane, Dave and Johanna of the Town Pants – July 17, 8:00pm(online premiere August 6):
With a decades' worth of headlining Roots and Celtic festivals to sold out rock venues, The Town Pants' own brand of Celtic-Roots-Rock spans six studio and two live albums, backed up with a legendary live show that has taken them from New York to Norway. The Vancouver based band combines aspects of Irish traditional, folk-rock and roots-Americana, fusing their signature dual lead vocals to create their own unique brand of high energy "West Coast Celtic" that remains in the heart and head long after the music stops.


All shows will be available for viewing on demand until September 17 online after premiering on Coquitlam’s Facebook page and YouTube channel.

Participants are encouraged to arrive early; gates will open 30-minutes prior to each concert. No food or beverages will be sold on site, but attendees are encouraged to bring takeout from a local restaurant or food and cold beverages from home.
