About
Vancouver, BC
Halloween Pub Crawls
Vancouver’s party map is split between Granville Street’s nightclub strip, Gastown’s brick-and-cobblestone bars and the restaurants and lounges around Yaletown. The Vancouver Halloween Bar Crawl gathers a group through participating stops on one wristband, so you do not spend half the night in a line or arguing over which neighborhood to try.
Halloween in Vancouver is a real event. Costumes are serious, groups of friends coordinate for weeks, and the crowd comes from across Metro Vancouver, including Burnaby, Richmond, Surrey, North Vancouver and the Fraser Valley. UBC and SFU students mix with downtown workers, and there is a steady stream of visitors from Washington State.
The weather is the other character. Late October on the West Coast is typically wet and cool, in the single digits or low teens Celsius, with drizzle common. Plan the costume around a hood or a rain layer, or accept that it may get soggy. Waterproof shoes are a quiet upgrade for the walk between stops.
Transit makes the night easier. SkyTrain, the Canada Line and the SeaBus connect most of the region, though service ends well before some bars close, so check your last ride. Your wristband covers the participating bars, and the confirmation email names the check-in venue. Prices keep rising as the Vancouver weekend gets closer. Bring a charged phone for the transit app.
