Welcome to the Music

Live music up close — since 1976

Forget the arena. Forget the jumbotron. At Saturday Night Special you sit close enough to see the smile, hear every word, and feel the room lift when the song lands.

Nine nights a year the Chinook Musical Society brings exceptional folk, roots, country, blues and Celtic artists to an intimate room with excellent sound, a full bar, concession, and free parking. Canadian and Alberta talent is front and centre, with standout touring acts from across North America.
