CELEBRATE CANADA'S BIRTHDAY
North
Vancouver, B.C.
- The team at Capilano will be proudly showing their pride and patriotism
this Canada Day. Visitors to the popular attraction will have the
opportunity to participate in the spirit of a country celebrating Canada's
141st birthday. BC Residents will receive 2 for 1 admission on Canada Day,
which includes an annual pass!
Join us from 11am to 4pm for Canada Day games along with Canadian flags, children's activities, temporary tattoos
and a huge birthday cake which will be served at 2pm!
As
Vancouverites celebrate, people from around the world can experience our
good fortune to live in one of the best cities in the world, as reaffirmed
by the Economist Intelligence Unit survey, and celebrate the diversity of
cultures that have come together to bind our country. This day long
celebration on July 1st is an annual favorite at the Bridge, with great
Canadian entertainment for the whole family topped off with the singing of
our national anthem - O Canada.
The
historic Capilano Suspension Bridge site dates back to 1889. The existing
bridge was rebuilt in 1956 and spans 450 feet across and 230 feet above the
rushing waters of the Capilano River. The 30-acre attraction is a short 10
minute drive from downtown Vancouver and has been family owned and operated
since 1952.
