On the south side of the Granville Island Public Market in the courtyard there is a small public stage. With the water, boats and buildings of residential Yaletown as a backdrop, small and large groups entertain the crowds who enjoy their lunch in the sun or simply soak up the ambience. This stage is the setting for high school bands, jazz musicians, jugglers and classical musicians. Just another reason to visit Granville Island a unique oasis in the heart of the city.
