Thanks to everyone who purchased tickets to last year’s (SOLD OUT) Comfort Food Crawl in 2025! We’re doing it all again January 24th, 2026!

Kicking off along with the City of Waterloo’s annual Winterloo festival, this year’s Uptown Comfort Food Crawl includes a delicious array of food items from Uptown restaurants that are sure to provide a little comfort! Sample it all in one delicious day!

Tickets are $15 to sample a variety of dishes across multiple Uptown venues with all proceeds going to The Food Bank of Waterloo Region.

This fall, AOMS explores the hope of light this winter season. Through soaring melodies, poignant poetry, and a rich blend of choral textures, we journey through snow-covered landscapes, quiet reflection, and the promise of renewal.

We are honoured to welcome the world-class Penderecki String Quartet to the stage with us. Together, we will perform four powerful works written specifically for SATB choir and string quartet—pushing the boundaries of style, sound, and storytelling. Featuring songs by Ola Gjeilo, Dan Forrest, Gordon Lightfoot, Sara Bareilles, and more, this concert will also feature a small set of classical works performed by PSQ. 

There are TWO shows available, a 2pm matinee followed by a 7:30pm evening performance. Purchase your tickets here or click on the Learn More link below.
