Bridge Warming: a family friendly FREE event under the Cambie Bridge!
The first ever “Bridge Warming” takes place this Friday (Nov 24) under the Cambie Bridge and promises “lights, music and extreme coziness.” And it’s completely FREE! This wonderful community event aims to brings “awe and wonder back to our oversaturated world.” Now that’s a sentiment we can all get behind. Oh … and did we mention, a gigantic blanket fort? #sold
Twenty students from SFU Semester in Dialogue at CityStudio have partnered with VIVA Vancouver to create engaging and thought-provoking projects underneath the Cambie Bridge. Bridge Warming shows the potential of Vancouver’s covered spaces for year-round events. Come on out, get cozy, and help them bring life to an underused space – rain or shine!

- Check out the interactive jam session at the pop up performance space (see sked below).

- Visit their outdoor living room for sharing skills, books and stories.
- Hang out in Vancouver’s first large-scale public blanket fort (with complimentary hot cocoa)
- Discover how native plants contribute to urban biodiversity in a miniature cityscape garden.
- Be immersed in Hfour light projections and lighting, alongside live music to end off the night.
