Hello All! I’m so excited to share with you about this event for two reasons, number one is how much I love the “why” of this event (We are going to learn what to do to prevent all of our waste going to the landfills, by properly recycling) and two because I know some people think that all the family-friendly activities are only located in Vancouver.

City of Surrey will host their ninth annual party for the planet, which is BC’S largest Earth Day celebration at Surrey Civic Plaza. This event is happening on Saturday, April 13 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

 

The signature Surrey event will feature the new undercover Live Green world, offering environmental workshops, a sustainable marketplace, concerts and local vendors!

This Free event presented by TD, will offer 1,000 free succulents to attendees (talking about attendees, we heard Big Bird and Elmo are going to be there) and is going to be full of family-friendly activities, some of them include a free zip line, rock climbing wall, road hockey and food trucks.

 

If you are into plants, they are going to have a sale on native trees for $20 each, and plants from $2 to $4. I cannot tell you how much I’ve been wanting to add more of these in my house! Soulful singer Colin Bullock, indie pop duo Harlequin Gold, and children’s performers Bobs & Lolo will perform on the TD main stage (Located inside council chambers).

 

Live music will be heard throughout the event, with a DJ in the Adventure Zone and acoustic performances in Live green World and City Hall Atrium.

If you are outside of Surrey and feel lazy about the drive, you can always take the Skytrain which leaves you right there while helping the environment.

 

My family and I are going to be there, so don’t forget to say hi if you see me around.

 

What’s your favourite Surrey Event?
