Join us for a unique experience where members of the NAC Orchestra provide a captivating soundtrack from aboard our showboat, as you walk, run, bike, or rollerblade along the scenic Rideau Canal.
The concert will begin at the Paul's Boat Line docks located on the Rideau Canal outside the NAC, under the Rideau Street Bridge. The boat will arrive at Lansdowne Park approximately 45 minutes later and then return back. The entire trip is 90 minutes, and the concert will take place on the boat while it is moving.
Tips and tricks for enjoying NACO on the Canal
We recommend you find a spot along the canal, not at the starting point at the NAC, where you will be able to hear the boat as it approaches and then continues down the canal.
Bring a picnic to your favourite canal side spot and enjoy the music as it passes by.
If you want more than a glimpse, you can cycle along to keep up as the boat moves faster than a walking pace.
