The Waynesboro Community Concert Association opens its 86th concert season in September, 2023. WCCA, formed in 1936, is the only concert association in Franklin County. We’ve held annual subscription costs to $50 for several years, providing exceptional value. The Association encourages student attendance (K-12 are free) and subscribers can also attend Gettysburg and Hagerstown concerts on a reciprocal basis.
Upcoming Shows
A six-concert 86th season kicks off in September, 2023. The “buy tickets” link offers opportunities to purchase member or gift subscriptions or individual tickets for any currently scheduled concert. Donations and advertising orders can also be made there.
Quality performances in an excellent auditorium setting are leading to remarkable growth in the Association. Members and friends are directly responsible for helping keep live music alive in Waynesboro.
WCCA provides scholarships to graduating WASHS students continuing post-secondary education in music. We invite active duty and military veterans, and their families, to a fall appreciation concert, and do the same in the spring for area first responders and educators and their families. We support various local nonprofit agencies with free subscriptions to offer at fundraisers.
Thank you one and all for your strong support.
