Things to do in Vancouver and the Lower Mainland this week! | Sep. 21 - Sep. 27

Fall is right around the corner (literally tomorrow), and with the seasons changing, so do the events and activities around the city.


It's been a weird and challenging year, but there have been positives and bright spots in everything that has happened. Small, local businesses are still pushing great events and activities for families and friends to enjoy, restaurants have pivoted to serve you your favourite foods, and attractions have changed their style of consumption to fit the new normal.


With all that being said, the Fall season is here, and some exciting events and activities are here this week and weekend to keep you engaged and upbeat with this new normal.


Check out the things to do in Vancouver and the Lower Mainland this week!
