About us

Performing Arts Lakefield (PAL) has been presenting an eclectic selection of world-class entertainment for more than 40 years!

Who we are

This non-profit volunteer group continues to find the most outstanding performances available to your community. We are really excited to offer our-coming season of critically acclaimed classical, jazz, blues, and folk performers!

PAL has become recognized across the province as an active supporter of both the community of Lakefield and the artists who perform at our concerts.

As Performing Arts Lakefield  does not receive any tax-base funding support, and is totally dependent on member subscriptions, private donors and business sponsorships, we need to ensure that each year we can support our programs. New donors and business sponsors are most welcome!
