Victory Square is the place to be for free fun this Sunday, as the eighth annual Fair in the Square transforms the park into a neighbourhood block party with live music, arts and crafts, and a free barbecue lunch.
The event is being put on by the good folks at the Central City Foundation, with volunteers and culinary students from nearby Vancouver Community College helping to cook up literally thousands of free burgers for the masses.
After you fill your belly full of free grub (did I mention the food is free?), check out the artists and artisans displaying and selling their wares. There’s also kids activities, yoga, sword-fighting demonstrations, and contests and prizes too.
Live on the Victory Square stage will be singer-songwriters Christine Magee and Bodhi Jones, folk/rock musicians Patrick Spencer and Wes Regan, musical theatre from Project Limelight, the Portage Freedom Fighters, and Aboriginal ensemble M’Girl. CBC’s Lien Yeung will be hosting the event, which runs from 11am to 2 pm at Hastings and Cambie.
