Coffs Orchestra plays colourful concert for seniors

COFFS Harbour City Orchestra is celebrating seniors by presenting a concert inspired by the 2026 Seniors Festival theme, Live Life In Colour.

The orchestra’s first concert of the year is free to attend and takes place at the North Coast Regional Botanic Gardens on Sunday 15 March at 2pm.

Celebrating the Seniors Festival, the orchestra will perform a selection of classical and popular orchestral works that relate to colour, such as the Blue Danube, Greensleeves, Follow the Colours, Blue Tango, Blue Hawaiian Waters, Yellow, the Pink Panther Theme and Fields of Gold.

Attendees are advised to bring along a chair or rug.

“On the preceding Saturday we will also perform the same concert for the residents at the Shoreline,” Coffs Harbour City Orchestra Cathie McIntyre told News Of The Area.

“We’ve added quite a lot of new music to our library and have some Cold Play, Sting and contemporary pieces of music that many people will know and of course classics that progress through time and are familiar to us all.”
