Meet the team behind Elektra’s 2026 Annual Fundraising Challenge!

Twelve participants are taking on eleven different challenges in support of Elektra – from swimming and cycling to running, hiking, and tackling the Grouse Grind.

Every dollar raised helps Elektra commission new music, support Canadian composers, collaborate with outstanding artists, and share exceptional choral music with our community.

Over the coming days, we’ll be introducing each participant and the challenge they’ve chosen to take on.
