The mission of the Victoria Symphony Society is to enrich, entertain, educate and inspire our community through symphonic concerts of the highest possible artistic quality within the framework of available resources. As part of our mission, we want to make symphonic experiences available to all, so each year the Victoria Symphony presents the Family Series of concerts, many of which are free to the public. In addition to our annual Concert and Family Series, the Victoria Symphony holds annual special events aimed at raising funds so that we can continue our mission. If you are looking for something to do in the Crossroads, you have come to the right place!
