Jazz Fest and Dragonboat Fest Launch Vancouver Into Summer
June 26, 2008 |
What a weekend we just had in town. Free shows in Gastown to celebrate the arrival of the Vancouver Jazz Festival plus a real party atmosphere around False Creek and Science World during the Dragonboat Festival. Then there was the glorious sunshine. Summer’s finally here — yeah!
My friends at Apex Tents helped keep the sun off the heads of the performers and vendors while I got to take some wonderful shots of our city in all its splendour.
It’s these kinds of weekends that make Vancouver spectacular and truly one of the world’s great places to live. Now, it gets even better because it looks like we’re in for the best weather of the year just as Canada Day approaches. The Jazz Fest extends into this weekend and next, with more free shows at Granville Island on July 1.
Hope you’re able to get out and enjoy!
