Bandology
More music for more kids — and a morning of live kids' play that had the festival's youngest fans grinning.
At the 2026 Event
Performed live kids' music and play from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM, with a hands-on setup that let children jump right in.
It was a genuine pleasure to host Bandology at the 2026 Mercedes-Benz Oakville Bronte Harbour Classic 5K Father’s Day Waterfront Festival. From 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM, they performed live kids’ play with a wonderful hands-on setup that let the festival’s youngest guests get in on the fun.
Bandology is a Canadian non-profit built on a simple, big-hearted idea: more music for more kids. Through Band Camp, Band Camp Junior, workshops, percussion parties, and their Play A Gig program, they give young people across Oakville and beyond the chance to play, perform, and fall in love with music. A family festival couldn’t ask for a better partner to keep the kids smiling all morning.
“A festival is for the whole family — and Bandology made sure the kids had a stage, a beat, and a blast all morning.”
