Metro Vancouver’s end-of-summer tradition, the PNE Fair, is back for its 115th year from Aug. 16 to Sept. 1 (closed Aug. 18 and 25)!

Experience the eclectic mix of fair food options. Watch the SuperDogs, as well as performances at the Roadhouse Patio & Bar and Freedom Mobile Stage, and — of course — the Summer Night Concerts! Experience hair-rising rides at Playland, win giant stuffies at the midway games, check out the agriculture displays, and so much more.

Plus, we’re back at the PNE Fair! Stop by the TransLink Zone, located just inside the entrance at the corner of Renfrew and Hastings Street.
