City Centre Open Studios
The Open Studio Art Sale will be a unique opportunity to enter the work spaces of over 40 artists working in a vast range of mediums. An opportune time to view their work, connect directly with the artists and learn about their influences. And, of course, purchase their art! Whether you are on the hunt for one-of-a-kind holiday gifts, shopping for yourself or hoping to add home or office inspiration, this event has everything you could want and more.
Ice Cream Truck Live
Ice Cream Truck Live was launched in 2020 by producer Roberto Richards as a response to Covid’s devastating impacts on the local musicians. It has since hosted over 20 pop-up shows in unique outdoor spaces, giving a platform to a diverse group of local artists. Over the course of the weekend the CONNECT X-Mas Market & Music Festival will feature the signature Neapolitan-coloured ice cream truck alongside over 20 of Vancouver’s most vibrant musical talents, both established and up-and-coming. Plus you can expect some amazing Food Trucks and a full bar.
