Description

The NAC welcomes locals and visitors alike to gather 'Together under the Sun' from July 4th to August 22nd, 2025, for our fourth summer programming season.  
 
Our 2025 summer programming offers audiences the opportunity to experience over 70 shows and events, featuring free and accessibly priced programs. Join us for an unforgettable journey as we transform our public spaces, wooden terrace, and even the Rideau canal into Canada’s stage. Linger in the setting sun as music makes the vibe, or join one of the running groups that will follow the musicians along the canal. From toddlers to grandparents, our family-friendly programming is packed with fun, energy, and great memories for all ages. Come as you are, stay for the fun! 
 
“I hope you'll join us and make the NAC a part of your summer. We have a full schedule of family-friendly programming in dance, theatre, and music to make your summer days and nights memorable. Discover the hidden gem on our rooftop - the wood terrace stage – and take in the music and soak up the sunsets. Our summer programming has a wealth of fresh new acts and returning favourites from across Canada and around the world.”
