Car Free Day Vancouver 2018

Car Free Day Vancouver is almost here and being that Vancouver is so enthusiastic about the event, it actually lasts for longer than a day in some neighbourhoods! This is your chance to hop off the sidewalk and stroll the streets of your community, or one you’d like to visit for the day, to experience live music, food, and the culture that makes each of these areas so charming.

Kitsilano

When: June 16 & 17; June 30 to July 2, 2018
Where: Various locations
Resources: In Kitsilano, it’s all about the individually-hosted block parties. Instead of closing off a major street, people throughout Kits host block parties with their neighbours. Some have dancing, some have music, some have couches, chairs and carpets in the middle of the street. All of them are a fun, relaxing chance to hang out with the people who live in your neighbourhood. Event Page »
