The Bel Canto Strings Academy will fill Hamilton Farmers’ Market with live holiday music on Saturday, December 6, from 10 to 11am. Their young musicians will perform a mix of seasonal pieces and classical favourites on the lower level, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere to kick off a full day of holiday activities.

Bel Canto Strings Academy is known for developing strong musical talent and giving students meaningful performance opportunities. Their players bring focus, skill, and genuine enthusiasm to each piece, which makes this performance a standout part of the Market’s Holiday Celebration. Whether you stay for the entire hour or drop in while you shop, the music adds a special energy to the space and gives visitors a chance to slow down and enjoy the moment.

Holiday Celebrations:

This event is one of several holiday experiences happening at Hamilton Farmers’ Market throughout December. After enjoying the live music, visitors can explore the rest of the Holiday Celebration, including Visit with Santa at the Market and the Gingerbread Decorating Workshop. It’s an easy way to build a full family outing: start with the Bel Canto performance, enjoy a seasonal treat, and then move on to photos with Santa or a festive craft.

Beyond the holiday programming, the market’s 50+ independently owned vendors offer plenty to discover. From international foods to local produce and handmade goods, it’s a great chance to pick up gifts, try something new, or enjoy lunch while you’re here. The festive décor and signature features like the BIRKS Clock help set the tone for a cheerful December visit.

Join us on Saturday, December 6, for the Bel Canto Strings Academy performance at Hamilton Farmers’ Market. It’s a great way to enjoy live music, support young musicians, and take in the holiday atmosphere during one of the most festive weekends of the season.
