Sometimes, the best holiday traditions aren’t just activities — they’re the moments your family talks about for years. And this season, one of Vancouver’s most magical must-dos is back at Canada Place: Soar with Santa at Flyover in Vancouver.
From now until Jan. 4, join Santa himself on an immersive sky-high journey, soaring over Canada’s sweeping landscapes before heading straight for the North Pole.
Enjoy breathtaking aerial views of the scenery as you watch a four-storey wraparound screen, sit in Flyover’s signature motion seats, and experience wind, mist, and festive scents all around. Every element works together to blur the line between ride and reality — it’s basically the closest thing to flying you’ll get without borrowing Santa’s sleigh.
And because even Santa loves a good deal: Kids get to ride free this season with the purchase of an adult ticket, Monday to Thursday, until Dec. 18.
A new holiday tradition
Want a glimpse of just how magical Soar with Santa feels? Take a look at this behind-the-scenes moment of kids experiencing the ride — their genuine reactions are everything.
For many Vancouverites, Soar with Santa is already a holiday tradition — the nostalgic, heartwarming kind that creates core memories for the whole family. So, why not choose a little whimsy and wonder over packed shopping malls this season and make it yours too?!
Santa visits
But that’s not all. At Flyover in Vancouver, you can also meet the big guy himself! Snap a photo with Santa from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays throughout the season. Or, write your wish list and drop it off at the special North Pole mailbox inside the Flying Whale Waterfront Café — Santa’s elves will handle the rest.
This holiday season, treat your family to an experience that lifts you off your feet. Glide into the North Pole and step back onto the ground with smiles a little bigger, and have a brand-new tradition to look forward to every year.
