All Valentine’s Day activities aside, Vancouver has so much more to offer. This coastal city is still too cold to go out on the water, but the downtown core is still buzzing with many things to do. Here are just a few of them.

Music of the Spheres

What is Music of the Spheres, you might ask? Well, the explanation could go on forever, but in summary it is the idea that celestial bodies (planets and such) create their own musical vibrations depending on their orbits and rotations. This has resulted in the movement of Musica Universalis where quite a few composers have been inspired and created choral music as a result. This concert pays homage to this and even features Canadian composers such as Stephen Chatman and Craig Galbraith. Join this epic music journey with the Vancouver Cantata Singers on Saturday, February 23, 2019 from 7:30 PM to 9:00 PM at the Blusson Spinal Cord Centre.

Sharon Van Etten

Sharon Van Etten comes to Vancouver! This American singer-songwriter plays Rachel in the Netflix Original The OA, but the feature is really music. Join her on Friday February 22, 2019 at Imperial in Vancouver. Tickets are $28.50 and the doors open at 8PM. Sharon’s use of harmonies and unique music style is only something that can truly be enjoyed in person.

Mushroom Racing

Did someone say Mario?! Well how about racing against your favourite characters, in a real life course and a race against the clock. On Sunday, February, 24, 2019, these characters come to life for races to collect stars and win some awesome prizes. Grab your friends and pick up your tickets now as these are bound to be sold out. With various dates and times, be sure to pay attention to when your date and race time is.

With all these activities occuring in the Vancouver Downtown area, it is really important to find affordable and accessible accommodations during this time of the year. Thankfully, the Quality Inn & Suites Vancouver Downtown is the perfect place. With our location at the central core, we are only a hop, skip, and a bus ride away from all of these awesome events. Not only that, but we are also a central place to enjoy the true hustle and bustle of Vancouver, and its downtown shopping core.
