Vancouver Fringe Festival

Since it started in 1985, the Vancouver Fringe Festival has been a fixture in the local arts community as a platform for diverse and boundary-pushing works. It features a huge variety of artists from all across the world, ranging from traditional theatre and spoken-word to dance, performing in every category from dramatic to the downright outrageous. There’s also an emphasis on live music — make sure to check out nightly concerts from favourite local artists. The Fringe Festival runs from September 6-16.

Visit A Pumpkin Patch

Head out east to one of Greater Vancouver’s many farms for a wholesome day of family fun. Laity Farms in Maple Ridge starts its pumpkin patch season on September 29. The family-run farm has been running for 30 years and, along with a beautiful pumpkin patch, it also features hay wagon rides, a farmer play centre, a corn maze, and farm animals.

Fright Nights

The PNE, Vancouver’s fairgrounds, turns to its dark side in this annual tradition. Running from October 6-31, Fright Night has plenty of haunted houses, monsters and ghouls running around spooking the unsuspected, and, of course, death-defying rides for those feeling brave.
