Description
Vancouver-based indie band Yukon Blonde heads east to Maple Ridge for a Saturday night show at The ACT Arts Centre, presented as part of the ACT Presents season. The quartet plays melodic indie pop with an Americana edge, and this tour, billed as "New Record. Same Band.", draws on both their garage-rock and acoustic pop sides.
When and where
- Date: Saturday, November 14, 2026
- Time: 9 pm
- Venue: The ACT Arts Centre, Mainstage Theatre, 11944 Haney Place, Maple Ridge
What to expect
Yukon Blonde is Jeffrey Innes, Brandon Scott, Graham Jones and James Younger. Originally from Kelowna, the band has been based in Vancouver since 2009 and has toured widely across Canada and the US, including a stop at South by Southwest. They were nominated for the 2013 Juno Award for Breakthrough Group of the Year. Their latest album, Friendship & Rock n' Roll, leans on bold riffs and upbeat energy, with influences from power pop, the Beatles and 1970s classic rock. The Mainstage is an intimate room compared with a club or arena, so expect a close-up view of the band.
The ACT Arts Centre is operated by the City of Maple Ridge and hosts a season of touring music, theatre and comedy, along with an art gallery. A show here is an easy way for Maple Ridge, Pitt Meadows and eastern Fraser Valley residents to catch a band they might otherwise travel into Vancouver to see.
Tickets and prices
General admission is $52.50 plus fees, which includes a $2 Capital Improvement Fund fee and a $2 processing fee. Tickets are available online through The ACT box office or by phone at 604-476-2787.
Getting there
The ACT sits at the edge of Memorial Peace Park in downtown Maple Ridge, next to the Maple Ridge Leisure Centre. The Haney Place bus exchange is close by. If you drive, the underground parkade is the best place to park, as there is no parking in front of the building.
Tips
- Make an evening of it with dinner at one of the restaurants in downtown Maple Ridge before the show.
- Check the ACT website for door times and any age restrictions closer to the date.
- Arrive a little early to find parking and pick up any will-call tickets.
