Doors Open Stratford
April 18th, 2026
A Night of Music & Community at Copperlight is a one-night cultural experience bringing together world music, classical and sacred performance, and an optional three-course dining experience in the heart of Stratford.
The evening features an opening act followed by a high-energy Gypsy Kings–style ensemble, delivering the rhythm, warmth, and spirit of Spanish-inspired world music.
Guests who choose the dinner experience will enjoy two exclusive performances earlier in the evening: a moving organ & vocal performance including The Lord’s Prayer, and a vocal presentation inspired by the timeless style of Andrea Bocelli.
Designed as a community-forward cultural gathering, this event celebrates music as a shared experience—bringing patrons, artists, and the wider Stratford community together for an unforgettable night at Copperlight.
