September Events in Vancouver 2026
It’s back to school season but the summer fun continues with a full September events calendar around Vancouver. I have another book event (with some fun Vancouver trivia) on September 8th, there are festivals and shows, and some fun to be had on the local farms with sunflowers and corn mazes.
This month, Miss604 sponsors the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation in Maple Ridge on Sunday, September 27th. All are welcome to attend this event co-hosted by Katzie First Nation with PLEA Community Services Society, Fraser River Indigenous Society, and BC Spokes. It is a day to honour survivors, remember those who never came home, and to reflect on the ongoing and devastating impacts of the residential school system.
