What sets Vancouver apart from all the other cities is its ability to seamlessly transition through all four seasons, offering a diverse range of activities and festivities to match each one. As we transition into Fall, there’s an abundance of exciting screen-free activities awaiting us. Whether it’s visiting the pumpkin patch with your family or entering a haunted house, Vancouver has something for everyone to embrace this autumn season.
Pumpkin Patches
Pumpkin patches offer a delightful and family-friendly weekend activity, making them perfect for spending quality time with your kids. Beyond just a one-day adventure, the fun continues even after you’ve selected your perfect pumpkin. Take it home and gather your family around for a carving session, transforming those pumpkins into jack-o’-lanterns! This enduring tradition adds a touch of magic to the fall season and creates lasting memories for everyone involved.

Spooky Season
For those seeking to embrace the spooky season, Vancouver has you covered with its array of haunted houses and renowned haunted maze experiences. Fright Night, a thrilling event held within an amusement park, beckons brave souls to explore a series of haunted houses. If the scares become a bit too intense, you can always take a breather on the amusement park rides! Additionally, the Maan Farms haunted maze offers a unique outdoor adventure that’s worth considering. While I haven’t been there myself, this year might just be the perfect opportunity to give it a try (if I’m able to find anyone brave enough to go with me).
