We are calling on the community to join an unforgettable celebration on Saturday, April 25th, International Organ Day, as we set out to reclaim our title as the Organ Capital of Canada!

Our exciting “Organ Play-in” event will be happening at 8 locations across the region from 10:00 a.m. to noon.

All are invited to drop in, sit at the keyboards of the “King of Instruments,” and play anything you like. Come listen, explore, and experience the organ’s rich, powerful, awe-inspiring sound up close!

This joyful, hands-on event is all about celebrating the organ and its music – and about setting a new record for the most people playing an organ on International Organ Day. Windsor Essex proudly set the very first record in 2023, only to see it claimed by the Victoria RCCO Centre in 2025…It’s time to take it back!

Our ambitious goal is to welcome 200 people from across Windsor and Essex County to experience the thrill of making an organ sing. No formal keyboard experience? No problem! Everyone who participates will also have the opportunity to learn more about the RCCO, including our training programs and scholarships.

Mark your calendar for Saturday, April 25, bring your friends, neighbours, children, and grandchildren – help us put Windsor Essex back on the map as the Organ Capital of Canada!
