CHILLIWACK — Renowned Canadian astronaut and respected author and musician Chris Hadfield will bring his distinctive storytelling, science and song to Chilliwack this fall.

Chilliwack and Fraser Valley residents alike are invited to relish a rare opportunity to hear and see “Beyond the Sky: An Intimate Evening with Chris Hadfield” on Thursday, September 25, 2025, signaling an illustrious highlight of the centre’s 15th anniversary season.
