Granville Entertainment District Vancouver

Victoria Day Tour

Granville Entertainment District Vancouver Overview

Granville Entertainment District: The energetic Granville Entertainment District transforms as night falls, when this downtown corridor’s historic theater marquees illuminate alongside modern nightclub facades, creating Vancouver’s most concentrated zone of after-dark entertainment options. Spanning several blocks of Granville Street, the Granville Entertainment District hosts dozens of venues featuring everything from electronic dance music and hip-hop to live bands and comedy performances, ensuring visitors can find their preferred nightlife experience within this vibrant district. During daylight hours, the Granville Entertainment District reveals its architectural heritage through impressively preserved Art Deco and Edwardian buildings, including the magnificent Orpheum Theatre, a designated National Historic Site that continues to serve as home to the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra. Food options throughout the Granville Entertainment District range from quick late-night pizza slices to sophisticated pre-theater dining experiences, with many restaurants transforming into lounges or clubs as evening progresses. The recent addition of summertime pedestrian-only zones has further enhanced the Granville Entertainment District’s appeal, allowing visitors to stroll safely between venues while street performers add to the carnival-like atmosphere on weekend evenings. Our Vancouver Hop on Hop off bus tour passes through the Granville Entertainment District making multiple stops throughout the day, offering glimpses of this energetic area before dropping passengers at their hotels or central locations.
