Smith + Andersen was thrilled to bring EcoJam back to the iconic Phoenix Concert Theatre in 2026 for another unforgettable evening of live music and industry connection.

Marking the event’s tenth edition, EcoJam once again showcased the incredible talent within the architecture, engineering, and construction community. Fifteen bands took to the stage, including Smith + Andersen’s own Arc Flashes, delivering a high‑energy night that celebrated creativity, collaboration, and community.

What started as a concert has grown into a cornerstone industry fundraiser. This year’s event sold out within days, drew support from a record number of sponsors, and raised an impressive total in support of Forests Canada. Crystal Ganny and Brad Bull took the stage to present the cheque for $75,000 to Kirsten Kekewich, Giving Partnerships Manager at Forests Canada, reinforcing EcoJam’s ongoing commitment to meaningful environmental impact.

Three people on stage hold a large EcoJam 2026 cheque for $75,000 made out to Forests Canada, with a crowd holding up phone lights in the background.

This event would not be possible without the dedication of its volunteers, sponsors, and the Smith + Andersen Marketing and Communications team, whose planning and behind‑the‑scenes efforts brought the night to life.

EcoJam will be back again next year, and we cannot wait to do it all over again.
