What to do on the weekend?

It’s Friday again which means that the weekend is just around the corner! If you don’t know yet what you want to do on the weekend then keep on reading because we are going to give you some tips!

Since it is almost December, there are already a lot of Christmas events going on. Like for example you can go to the Capilano Suspension Bridge to see the Canyon Lights.

22799557324_a99330f147_zOn Saturday you can also visit the Surrey Tree Lighting Festival which include family friendly activities, holiday crafts, food trucks, live entertainment and the lightning of a 55-foot Christmas tree. Also the Vancouver Christmas market located at the Jack Pool Plaza started this week. This Christmas market is an European-style market that’s great for holiday window shopping and festive things to eat. There is on most days (especially weekends) also live music.

If you don’t feel like Christmas yet than you can also go to the Disney on Ice show or Cirque du Soleil which are both still in town.

And the INTERNeX family will go to Seattle this weekend to do some sightseeing and of course some Black Friday Shopping!

We hope you all have an amazing weekend and we’re looking forward to see all of you tomorrow for Seattle!

What to do on the weekend?

Not 5 days, but just 4 days and the weekend is already here. That also means one day less to figure out what to do this weekend. No worries, I am here to help you out. On Saturday the Canucks are playing and we are watching. It will be a nice game to see. But also other activities are taking place. Find out below what is going on in and around Vancouver.

Do you already have some Christmas feelings? Good. From this week on the INTERNeX Office Christmas Carol Tour takes place. For just 50 cents, you can watch our Christmas tree while professional karaoke singer Bart will sing you a Christmas carol with reindeer ears on his head and you can enjoy a chocolate as well. What a great deal! If you want something more professional (I can’t imagine) the first Christmas Craft Fairs are taking place this weekend. Go to the Christmas market at Hycroft, the craft market at Chiliwack, the Christmas show at West Coast or the Holiday Bazaar in North Vancouver.

If you want you can do a crawl this weekend. No, not a pub-crawl, but this time a Culture Crawl. In 80 buildings in the area over more than 500 artists will show their work. Is art not your thing? Ok, what about hiring a car and driving to the Fraser Valley for the Bald Eagle Festival? Take your camera with you on 18 or 19 November and spot some of these great eagles. You get the beautiful views for free as well. Enjoy nature walks, boat tours, wildlife and of course hundreds of bald eagles.

I will see you guys who joining the Canucks game on Saturday, and the others perhaps afterwards. Whatever you decide to do this weekend, you have to promise me one thing: have fun!

What to do on the weekend?

Just a couple more hours people and then you can finally enjoy your well deserved weekend. And since for now the weather forecast for this weekend looks pretty good, we will give you some tips how you can spend your weekend!

Since Halloween is right around the corner this weekend there will be a lot of Halloween activities. You can enjoy an adults-only murder mystery event at Science World today called After Dark Zombie Breakout or you can go to Dooms Night which is a Halloween Party (19+) at the Pacific Coliseum.

If you don’t like Halloween then you can also enjoy the Harrison Beer Festival on Friday or Saturday or Cirque du Soleil which is the whole weekend.

We as INTERNeX are going to Whistler this weekend for our monthly trip. Like you could have read in the blog post about the trip we will meet at 9:30 am in front of Burrard Station to start our amazing weekend!

What to do on the weekend?

And another working week has gone by!! This means we can enjoy our free time the way we want it. To help you a bit we listed down some things you can do during your weekend.

There is nothing better than going to a nice hockey game after work right? So if you would like to go to a game then tonight is your chance to see the Giants play against Kamloops at the Langley Events Centre.

On Saturday we would like to take you all with us on our amazing pub crawl which starts at 8 pm in the Cinema Public House on Granville Street. We will visit a few 18+ pubs in the beginning and later at night the pub crawl will continue as a 19+ event. Don’t forget to bring two pieces of ID.

15217796900_7b64d1385b_o.jpgAnother big event going on this weekend is The Vancouver International Film Festival. The festival will take place from September 29th until October 14th. It’s the 35th edition with 350 movies to explore. The festival takes place at different locations such as the International Village Mall, Vancity Theatre, The Rio Theatre and many more venues.

If you like something more cultural on your free Sunday then you can check out the Diwali Fest which takes place at Surrey City Hall and features live music and dance performances as well as an Indian-style market from 3 until 6 pm.
