Events in Vancouver November 2026
In November we pause to Remember, and then roll into the holiday season. Enjoy a lineup of events around Vancouver that have become annual favourites, along with some new activities to add to the calendar.
This month, Miss604 is proud to sponsor three BC Achievement Award events including the Indigenous Business Award (November 4), the Sam Carter Award in Applied Art + Design (November 19), and the Polygon Award in First Nations Art (November 24). I am also co-hosting a Vancouver Trivia Night at the Hastings Mill Museum with my FREECOUVER co-author (November 20).
