A holiday train ride & The Nutcracker: Everything coming to Vancouver’s Winter Fair

It might feel like worlds away, but sooner than you think, it’ll be the season of dancing sugar plums, dazzling holiday lights, and decadent cocoa – and there’s no place better to enjoy it all than the annual PNE Winter Fair.

A beloved Vancouver holiday tradition, the Winter Fair offers families and friends of all ages the chance to indulge their inner child.

2024 attractions

As always visitors can expect a magical blend of indoor and outdoor attractions, including a holiday musical, festive WinterLights display, outdoor ice skating, festive treats and sips, and thrilling ice bumper cars, to name a few.

Oh, and a mesmerizing show of world-class skaters bringing Tchaikovsky’s music to life via this year’s Nutcracker on Ice!

Visitors can also warm up in the Winter Chalet, shop the holiday market, and enjoy a festive ride on the PNE Express Train through glowing light tunnels and whimsical winter scenery.

In terms of rides, there’s also going to be a Ferris Wheel and ‘Berry-Go-Round’ ideal for capturing holiday memories (and photos).
