Creatively Playful
Lighten Santa’s load this Holiday Season and opt to give an experience rather than a thing. Holiday memories come from the shared feasting, the family jokes, the carolling, the chaos, the crafting – the shared experience. This year, give the gift of a day at the Vancouver International Children's Festival.
You are cordially invited to attend the Annual General Meeting for the Vancouver International Children’s Festival Society on Tuesday, December 2, 2025 at 6:00 pm.
Alliant musique du monde, art clownesque et chorégraphies ludiques, ce spectacle haut en couleur regorge d’humour, de rythmes et de découvertes culturelles.
A zany brass band is ready to whisk you away on a hilarious musical adventure! Under the guidance of a bossy yet bird-brained bandleader, this merry crew sets off to explore the world (and beyond!)—from Canada to Brazil to Ukraine and back, with a detour to Planet Mars!
Step into a world of wonder. Inside a darkened space, a glowing cluster of tiny islands awaits—each designed for a single adventurer. At every island, children uncover a playful question or request, sparking imagination, reflection, or hands-on interaction.
The lights are on, the stage is set, and the little officers are on patrol…well, sort of. When singer Rizotto refuses to appear for the concert, chaos erupts! Acrobatics, musical mishaps, and comic misfires turn order into hilarious mayhem.
Come listen to the engaging stories told by Kung Jaadee, a Haida storyteller who has been sharing legends for over 30 years! Kung Jaadee will share some of her favourite tales about Raven (Yaahl), the trickster and creator.
You won’t want to sit down for this high-energy dance show that transforms the everyday bench into a stage for humour, honesty, and breathtaking physicality. Five fearless dancers push the limits of movement, exploring what it means to take space, share space, and sometimes fall right off the edge.
The VICFS is in its 49th year and is looking for new Board members. There are currently a number of exciting opportunities.
