Tubing (or tobogganing) is certainly a rare opportunity for Vancouverites. Luckily, you can enjoy both on dedicated hills at Mt. Seymour. It’s a great option if you’re looking for a family-friendly day trip, or as a way to unwind after a day on the actual slopes. Just be sure to check the weather forecast on the hill before you go!
When: Open throughout February

Cost: $10+
Thankfully, ARC Restaurant & Bar offers bottomless weekend brunch, which definitely makes for a great start, middle, or end to the weekend, no matter the occasion – be it a date, a catch-up session, or a solo treat.
Where: 900 Canada Place Way
Whether it’s just drizzly or full-out storming, there are (thankfully) plenty of covered patios in Vancouver to choose from. Why not make the most of them and sip on a couple of happy hour bevies this weekend?
