While visiting the CBC Vancouver broadcast centre is a special holiday tradition in the community, in adherence to physical distancing protocols and to promote public safety, the CBC Vancouver building will not be open to the public for tours or live broadcasts this year.

In addition to raising funds for local food banks this year, CBC Vancouver will be encouraging acts of kindness in the community to spread goodwill and cheer during an especially challenging holiday season.

  • The Early Edition with Stephen Quinn featuring special guests from 5:00am to 8:30am
  • An extended and combined edition of BC Today with Michelle Eliot &North by Northwest with Sheryl MacKay starting at noon
