Pender Harbour Music Society
The
Pender Harbour Music Society was formed in 1987 to
nurture, promote and enhance music, music education, and
culture on the Sunshine Coast, particularly in the
community of Pender Harbour, and to establish the
Performance Centre as a centre for cultural development
in the community. The Society has three main activities
- the regular fall/winter concert series, the Pender
Harbour Jazz Festival which takes place annually on the
third weekend in September, and the newest project, the
Chamber Music Festival which takes place on the third
weekend in August. The Society also provides a home for
the Pender Harbour Community Choir, the Pender Harbour
Pipe Band, music lessons for children and adults, and
lots of other community events. The Society is committed
to providing quality music to an increasingly diverse
audience. It brings high quality professional artists to
the community and to the whole Sunshine Coast and
nurtures and promotes local and upcoming young
musicians. The Pender Harbour Music Society's
Performance Centre is located in Madeira Park across
from the Government dock.

Pender Harbour Golf Club
Pender Harbour Golf Club is about five kilometers north of the community of Madeira Park.
Established in June of 1986, this 9 hole course was built with a unique combination of flat and hilly fairways. Water hazards are scattered throughout to add to the challenge of the game. The fairways are fairly tight, with elevated greens and tees that enable you to take in every great view of the surrounding mountains and scenery that is common to the entire area.
