Vancouver, British Columbia has an amazing variety of special events including fairs, festivals, concerts, sports and anything else you could think of (even gambling!).
Perhaps it is because of the city's climate, or the unbelievably breathtaking scenery that surrounds Vancouver, from the mountains to the harbors and bays, or their wonderful park system with parks of all types in and around the city, or perhaps its simply that the people of Vancouver enjoy celebrating life - in all its forms, in all its ethnicity, in all its culture.
So check out some of the highlighted events taking place and try to visit during at least one of them. For the latest information on current fairs, festivals and concerts, always check with your hotel.
