The Hamilton Philharmonic Orchestra has a 140-year history of making and celebrating music in all corners of our city and we are proud to call downtown Hamilton our home. In summer 2026 we are thrilled to present a free, bi-weekly concert series on King William Street in the heart of downtown. Join us every second and fourth Wednesday of June, July and August at noon as we turn King William Street into the perfect afternoon patio with HPO ensembles.
Grab a seat on one of King William Street’s many restaurant patios to enjoy the music! Or, bring your own lawn chair or find one of the patio chairs on King William provided by the City of Hamilton. King William Street will be closed to traffic 7AM-4PM on performance days.
Fringe Boulevard events are FREE and NO TICKET IS REQUIRED. Space may be limited. Please arrive at least 15 minutes prior to the event to ensure you have the best possible experience.
