Our 2023 Vancouver Easter Events and Easter Egg Hunt Guide for Metro Vancouver will help you find the best fun-filled family Easter events.
These are some of the best Easter activities to explore in Vancouver and the Fraser Valley.
Note: For the best experience, check to see if the event needs advance tickets before heading out.
And remember, always dress appropriately. This year the weather is unpredictable. It could be warm and sunny one moment, then get chilly and wet, and maybe throw in some hints of snow flakes. Fields might get muddy and slippery. Good waterproof footwear, such as boots should be worn. For the little ones, always be prepared with a change of clothing.
Bring a collapsible wagon if you plan on purchasing farm-fresh produce and other goodies while visiting.
It would be wise to take wet wipes and hand sanitizer as the washing stations are not always in convenient locations.
Please leave your pets at home unless the event specifically says it allow dogs, except if it is a service animal.
