ISF Sound System is our free music stage in the heart of Granville Island’s Public Market courtyard. Over two Sunday afternoons (July 10 and July 17), we bring the sounds of classical and contemporary South Asia to the island. Featuring singer/songwriters, sitar virtuosos, tabla gurus and even a brass band, this is a musical Thali meal with something for every taste.
Come on down, no tickets or reservations required. Grab lunch or a chai from the market, and listen to some of the most talented musicians in our midst.
