This year, we’re celebrating Canada Day Robson Street style—and here’s why you should, too!
On Sunday, July 1st from 12 to 4 p.m., the Robson Street Business Association is teaming up with the West End Business Improvement Association to host an epic Canada Day street party. The sidewalks from Burrard to Denman Street will come alive with music, entertainment, dance, kids’ activities, delicious fare, business promos and giveaways. Among the live acts: Dueling Pianos, Derek Pitts and the Bullets, Eric Biskupski and Anuar Chain-Haddad.
Additionally, there will be four separate activation zones, including Bute Robson Plaza (check out the colourful and fun family lounge area, complete with music, face painting, balloon twisting, magic and life-sized games to play), the alley between CB2 and Shenanigans (this overlooked laneway will be transformed to feature music by DJ Static, hip-hop performances by Diamonds in the Rough and Sweett Moves, live art and a selection of food trucks), as well as Jervis Street (where the Second Annual Timber Ball Hockey Tournament will take place, with local brewery teams facing off to win the coveted trophy) and Cardero Street (here, the event’s main stage will feature live music from Marine Drive, Deep Seated and Circus in Flames and Holy Crab will be selling its newest menu items), all of which will be closed to vehicle traffic.
