The 2024 East Vancouver Garden Tour is a self-guided tour of some of the loveliest gardens in East Van. You check in and pick up a map at Figaro's (1896 Victoria Drive) that provides locations and descriptions of all the gardens. Each year we choose a selection of gardens in a relatively small area, so that once you start the tour you will likely be able to walk to all the gardens. This year's tour features around a dozen wonderfully diverse home gardens in the general vicinity of Figaro's — some well established and some newer — and all hidden gems.
Please visit our East Vancouver Garden Tour website for up-to-the-minute info about the tour.
The East Vancouver Garden Tour is the only fundraiser for the volunteer group Britannia Neighbours, and the proceeds go to maintaining the Napier Square Greenway (at Napier and Commercial Drive). We buy plants and supplies and pay people to water and pick up litter in the Greenway. We also participate as a Neighbourhood Greenway in the Green Streets program at the City of Vancouver.
