No one can accuse Vancouver of being proper and stodgy!  Just make a visit to the city’s Granville Street Entertainment District after dark and you can watch the city come alive with a vibrant nightlife that rivals that of other large North American cities.

Throughout the past decade, Vancouver has pumped up the excitement along Granville Street with the opening of lots of trendy new night clubs, bars, micro-breweries, comedy clubs, and other establishments that stay open until the wee hours of the morning.

The Entertainment District is a favorite hang-out of the city’s young, fashionable singles and couples, and during the weekend evenings, crowds are the norm in this high-energy district where the lights are bright, the music is loud, and the people are warm and friendly but ready to “party hearty.”
