vancouver: what to do, what to do?

It’s Victoria Day weekend, and that means many of us have an extra day off to spend with family. It also means loads of special Victoria Day events in the Lower Mainland. You can catch parades in New Westminster, Chilliwack and Fort Langley, have tea in Burnaby, and eat cake in Surrey! Also happening this weekend is the Cloverdale Rodeo, the Hyack Festival, and the Lower Mainland’s stops on the Rick Hansen 25th Anniversary Relay. We hope the weather holds for all these great events, and we hope you have a fantastic weekend!
