On this B.C. Day holiday weekend, there's a veritable symphony of things to do - and you are the conductor. What will you choose?

Perhaps, like maestra Tania Miller, you will decide to attend the 23rd edition of one of Victoria's most anticipated summer events: Sunday's Symphony Splash.

If so, you will be soaking up the sounds of a top-shelf orchestra while basking in almost ideal August weather, with temperatures expected to reach the mid 20s.

The Inner Harbour spectacle is just one of a number of events celebrating Victoria's 150th anniversary. Other standouts, happening today, are the Amelia Street Block Party and the Victoria Garden Party. Details in Calendar, page A2. There's also an array of festivals, including Sunfest, Hornby and Coombs Bluegrass. Check out the Go Calendar at timescolonist.com.
