Doors Open Richmond 2025
- Dates: Saturday, June 7 and Sunday, June 8, 2025
- Location: Over 50 locations around Richmond, BC
- Admission: Free! While most programs are available on a walk-in basis, some will require advance registration.
While the event is largely self-guided, the Richmond Museum will offer two different bus tours for those interested in exploring the sites thematically.
Highlights from this year’s program include: KPU Farms, a new site joining DOR this year, which invites families to explore sustainable growing methods and a rich variety of locally grown crops; Seawrack Press Studio is perfect for those interested in learning about the rich traditions of paper making and bookbinding; and LuLu Island Winery, where visitors can walk the vineyards for a one-of-a-kind look at wine making and a guided tasting.
Due to popular demand, the number of bus tours this year has been doubled. The Sacred Spaces tour on Saturday and Sunday will bring visitors to different places of worship along No. 5 Road, known as the “Highway to Heaven,” and additional neighbourhoods in Richmond. This year’s tour will make stops at Lingyen Mountain Temple, Eastern Catholic Church, and Vedic Cultural Centre on Saturday, and Richmond Ismaili Jamatkhana, Richmond Jamia Mosque, and Steveston Buddhist Temple on Sunday.
Newly added is the Discover Doors Open tour, a specially curated tour that will showcase three different partner sites on both Saturday and Sunday. On Saturday, the stops will be at The Sharing Farm, Effat Mirnia Art Studio, and Nanaksar Gurdwara Gursikh Temple. On Sunday, the stops will be at Athiana Acres, LuLu Island Winery, and FT Art Studio.
