Discover the latest scoop from Vancouver - frosty weather alerts, festival cancellations, and city news that's got everyone talking!
From frostbite warnings to festival cancellations, Vancouver is buzzing with news that's keeping residents on their toes. Environment Canada issued an Arctic outflow warning for Metro Vancouver, predicting dangerously cold temperatures and possible snowfall on Jan. 11, 2024. Alongside this chilly forecast, the PuSh Festival in Vancouver made waves by canceling a play, 'The Runner,' over Gaza tensions, sparking mixed reactions from the community. Additionally, the City of Vancouver reignited its crackdown on hookah lounges, escalating efforts to shut down these establishments.
As snowfall snarled traffic and emergency shelters felt the squeeze from increasing refugee claims, Vancouverites braced themselves for a challenging period. Adding to the mix, Mount Pleasant could soon host Vancouver's tallest 'hybrid-timber' tower, offering 210 rental units in a 25-storey building at Main St. & 5th Avenue. Amidst all this drama, Vancouver's new alcohol-free By the Hour Comedy scene is making waves, bringing a fresh perspective to the city's entertainment scene.
In a twist of events, the Vancouver Theatre Festival not only followed Victoria in canceling an Israel-set play but also dropped another production that faced controversy.
