Family Activities in Surrey Partnership Post
In British Columbia’s fastest growing city, there are a variety of exciting activities and unique attractions for the entire family to explore. Even those living in Greater Vancouver may not be aware of the array of options for weekend getaway fun or pro-d day adventures that Surrey has to offer.
As the official destination marketing organization for the community, Discover Surrey is an independent, non-profit organization using creative strategies to highlight this local destination.
Recently, Discover Surrey launched Signature Experiences- Explore.Taste.Connect. Collaborating with local independent businesses to create, activate, market, and promote local experiences, this allows visitors from near and far to more thoroughly enjoy and explore Surrey. For your family, this is especially relevant for those who are not as little as they used to be!
We recommend these three experiences as ideal activities for fall or winter days when your family is keen to try something new yet stay close to home.
During this all-ages experience, your kiddos will explore interactive onsite learnings about the honeybee and use their creativity during an engaging candle-making session using real beeswax. You will leave with a custom creation and knowledge of the incredible work that goes into every drop of beeswax.
