The Best Holiday Events and Activities in Vancouver

This is the Vancouver Christmas Market's 8th year and it is bigger and better than ever. If you've dreamed of going to a German Christmas market, this is your chance, go visit the German-inspired Christmas market in Vancouver. Purchase your tickets ahead of time online, or you can buy tickets at the gate—but note that it's cash only. Let your kids go for a ride or two on the carousel inside the market while you enjoy a cup of mulled wine or apple cider. The food is not to be missed, so go hungry and tuck in to Belgian waffles topped with strawberries, hurricane potatoes, and rum Stollen. Wrap up your visit by picking out a special ornament as a family from the market, to place on your Christmas tree at home.
$10 for adults, kids 6 and under free. More info at vancouverchristmasmarket.com.
