It’s a good weekend to be a kid; the International Children’s Festival is on, there’s a ballet production of Cinderella and an adventure playground pop-up.

Things to Do this Weekend in Vancouver: July 13, 2017

Just how Vancouver can one summer weekend possibly get? Quite, if a mashup of a folk music on the beach, tiny dog races, Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh canoeing, sipping adult beverages at playland, live painting, outdoor dancing, and even an exhibition about sustainable urban housing pretty much encompasses most of it. Throw in a bit of hiking, outdoor yoga, and sushi, and I’d say we’ve pretty much got it in the bag this weekend.
