Pro Tip: Avoiding late charges during the summer

Driving during the summer months can be an aggravating experience when it’s hot and you’re stuck in an interminable traffic jam. Metro Vancouver, Greater Victoria and Kelowna have major construction projects on the go on a regular basis, along with scheduled road improvement projects. Making sure your next trip is a relaxed one is a matter of strategy and planning.

The fireworks blast off at 10:00pm but there is also live music and other fun activities starting in the early afternoon. The fireworks once again take off from the water by English Bay Beach. The main daytime festivities, however, are at the festival’s relatively new location at Second Beach in Stanley Park. Learn more here.
