Local Tips

Here are some helpful tips to make the most of the concert series:

Plan Ahead for Concert Dates: Check the official Whistler Summer Concert Series schedule in advance so you can book your stay at the Fairmont Chateau Whistler around your favourite artists’ performances.
Take advantage of Proximity: The Whistler Olympic Plaza is just a short walk (about 15 minutes) from the Fairmont Chateau Whistler, so leave your car behind and enjoy a leisurely stroll through the village. OR, take the hotel shuttle for a drop off 5 minutes away from the venue.
Pack for the Weather: Whistler evenings can be cool, even in summer. Bring a light jacket, sweater, or blanket to stay cozy while enjoying the outdoor concerts.
Arrive Early for the Best Spot: The Whistler Summer Concert Series is free and attracts big crowds. Arrive early to secure a prime viewing spot on the grassy lawn.
Bring a Blanket or Chair: Low-back lawn chairs or picnic blankets make it more comfortable to enjoy the show, and they’re allowed on the plaza lawn.
Plan Dinner Before the Show: Grab dinner to go from Portobello or enjoy an early dinner at one of the Fairmont Chateau Whistler’s dining venues, like The Wildflower or Mallard Lounge before heading to the concert.
Capture the Memories: Bring your phone or camera to capture the stunning mountain backdrop and vibrant energy of the concerts—but don’t forget to put it down and soak it all in too!
