Delightful Vancouver Christmas event kicks off this weekend

With a holiday train, ice bumper cars, and skating rink!

It's still technically fall, but there are already some Christmas events underway across Vancouver, including this popular family-friendly option.

The PNE's Winter Fair is taking place from Dec. 6 to 8 and 12 to 23 on the fairgrounds.

The annual fair at the PNE fills the site with holiday cheer, Christmas lights, and lots of activities including ice bumper cars, a skating rink, rides, and figure skating shows at the Pacific Coliseum.

And, of course, there's Santa.

To add to the adventure of meeting Santa, the winter fair will have an interactive journey to meet the big man, with a trip to a (still open!) post office, the reindeer barn, and toy testing.

There's also the PNE's train, done up for the holidays, and a marketplace.
