‘Dancing in the Park’ resumes in 2023 to continue our 70+ year tradition of open air dancing from June to August, Monday evenings at 7:00 pm.
Each evening includes popular audience-participation dances for young and old, and we are always pleased to welcome visitors, whether local or from out of town. Your hosts each evening are from Vancouver area Scottish Country Dancing clubs. Dancing is free, but there is pay parking throughout Stanley Park – see below for changes in how to access the Park. Bring a cushion, the concrete seating is FIRM!
