festivELLE 2025
March 16th and 18th, 2025
festivELLE is Vancouver’s biannual celebration of female-identifying musicians and composers that showcases innovation and social change through music. As one of the only all female professional orchestras in the world, the award winning Allegra Chamber Orchestra creates relevant, inclusive, impactful, and innovative live performances. In 2025, the theme of festivELLE was Migration, Displacement, and Belonging, with each thoughtfully curated performance reflecting elements of the lived experiences of each of us, whether we are immigrants, First Peoples, minorities, or simply finding our way.
Thank you for joining us for two extraordinary concert events:
Reflections, March 16, 2025 at Notional Space
Journeys, March 18, 2025 at The Annex

We acknowledge that we are living, working, and creating on the unceded territories of Indigenous Nations coast to coast. We thank them for having cared for these lands and waters with wisdom and mindfulness, and we extend this gratitude to all First Nations, Inuit and Metis Nations across Turtle Island. We acknowledge that there can be no reconciliation without truth, and commit to sharing and revealing that truth. We look forward to walking lightly, and working together in partnership as we continue to create, learn, heal and share.
