9 Family-Friendly Summer Festivals in Vancouver

On a warm summer evening, everything is better outdoors, especially the movies. So take advantage of our long summer nights at the Summer Cinema Series in Stanley Park. Movies are screened on a giant blow-up movie screen at Ceperley Meadow, Second Beach, and the schedule is full of favourites like Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. And you can't beat the cost—it's free. This series is popular, so consider arriving at least an hour or two early to get a prime spot. And while Vancouverites like to boast about the lack of mosquitos in our city, the insects seem to love Stanley Park, so bring bug spray.
