Opera Under The Stars in Â鶹¾«Ñ¡

A mid-summer evening of music captivated an estimated 700 concert-goers Wednesday night during the third-annual Opera Under the Stars at UBC Okanagan campus.

Set in UBCO’s central courtyard, the free open-air public concert featured world-class performances from Opera Â鶹¾«Ñ¡ in an informal and picturesque setting.
