Pivot presents

At Pivot, we love a great party. Every year we host some of Vancouver's most exciting events, from our Passion for Justice Comedy Burlesque show in the Courthouse, to our Justice Rocks music festival in Strathcona Park. Our events are creative and interactive ways bringing Pivot’s message of change to the community as well as a great way for people to get together, celebrate change, and build connections.


  Justice Rocks is our annual music festival celebrating art and change. It’s an outdoor dance party, park takeover, and a showcase of some of the leading social and environment change organizations around. Over the years we have attracted lots of party people - everything from skate demos, a dunk tank, and marching bands to break dancers, and a carnie birthday party. Justice Rocks also boasts an amazing kids area and is good old fashioned family fun with a social change twist.
Passion for Justice   Passion for Justice is our annual auction held every November in the Supreme Court building. Passion is a busy, swanky affair with entertainment that pushes boundaries and amazing auction items that spur bidding wars. Bring your friends, dress up, and enjoy an exciting evening of good people, great acts, and bidding in support of real change.
