In a unique seasonal music experience, contemporary mandolin master John Reischman and his renowned band The Jaybirds return to Victoria after a two-year hiatus with their 12th annual Bluegrass Christmas, in support of Our Place Society. Their festive concert, blending bluegrass with the distinct sounds of Appalachian old-time music, has been described as "a lovely romp through the snowy backwoods of American roots music."

With his acclaimed new solo album New Time & Old Acoustic, Reischman offers concert-goers a fresh take on a concert known for beautiful and evocative ballads spiced by rollicking instrumentals, played by a powerhouse lineup of some of North America's finest acoustic musicians. The concert also features new tunes from the Juno-nominated album 13 or So from banjoist Nick Hornbuckle.

In keeping with B.C. health protocols, proof of double Covid-19 vaccination is required and masks are mandatory. Seating is limited to 50% of the venue's capacity, allowing for a safe and comfortable concert experience.
