Honda Celebration of Light: A Firework Spectacle Over the Bay

Honda Celebration of Light

Each summer, Vancouver’s night skies are illuminated by the Honda Celebration of Light, one of the world’s most attended fireworks competitions. Lasting several nights at English Bay, this global affair presents teams from various countries with impressive pyrotechnics choreographed to music.

Traveling there can be problematic with transit delays and packed buses, but with a rental vehicle, you can leave early, snag a good seat, and have a picnic supper beforehand. Check the official event website for dates and country lineups.

Vancouver International Film Festival (VIFF): Lights, Camera, Culture

Vancouver International Film Festival

Taking place annually in the fall, VIFF is a treat of international cinema and homegrown talent. A must-visit for film enthusiasts, it features screenings, workshops, and forums at venues throughout downtown Vancouver.

By renting a car, jumping between venues and after-screening activities is a snap. Don’t wait in line for transit at night and be prepared for a flexible film schedule. Find out more about the festival at viff.org.

Car-Free Day: Ironically, a Good Reason to Drive Around Town

Car Free Day

In what may sound counterintuitive, Car-Free Day Vancouver, which converts popular areas like Commercial Drive and Main Street into pedestrian malls, presents an unusual opportunity to tour neighboring neighborhoods by automobile.

Before and after, you can explore the nearby places such as Mount Pleasant or Kitsilano using your rental vehicle, where the same festivities and local restaurants are waiting for you. Discover more about this community celebration at carfreevancouver.org.

Vancouver Folk Music Festival: Chill Vibes at Jericho Beach

Vancouver Music Festival at Jericho Beach

A relaxed but vibrant festival every summer, the Vancouver Folk Music Festival introduces international music to the tranquil atmosphere of Jericho Beach. With several stages and a solid community vibe, it’s a favorite among the city’s summer festivals.

Parking is limited, so having a rental car gives you the flexibility to get there early and bring everything you need for a picnic. Stick around for sunset and leave whenever you’re ready, in your own time.

Dine Out Vancouver: A Foodie Journey in the Winters

Food enthusiasts, rejoice! Dine Out Vancouver Festival happens annually in January, where several hundred restaurants feature prix-fixe menus and culinary events all around the city. It is the ideal opportunity to try Vancouver’s diverse food scene.

Public transportation may restrict your dining options. Car rentals in Vancouver allow you to discover off-the-beaten-path food gems in such areas as Kerrisdale, East Van, or venture further out to Richmond for Chinese cuisine. Check out dineoutvancouver.com to find out where the locations are participating.

Pride Parade: Love, Color, and Celebration

Vancouver’s Pride March is not a parade—it’s a citywide fest of love and acceptance. It takes place each August and draws more than half a million viewers and marchers to the West End.

Parking in the core can be tight, but a rental car is perfect if you plan to explore post-event parties or quieter spots like Stanley Park afterward. Pride is a highlight of Vancouver’s event calendar, and being mobile helps you experience it to the fullest.
