Halloween weekend travel: arrive Friday Oct 30, leave Monday Nov 2. Everything you need -- YVR, transit, hotels, and where to stay within walking distance of the venue.
Vancouver International Airport. 30 min to downtown by Skytrain (Canada Line), ~45 min by rideshare. All festival venues are easily reachable by transit or short rideshare from downtown.
Compass Card is the transit pass — buy one at any Skytrain station or convenience store. A Day Pass is ~$12 CAD. The Skytrain covers most festival venues.
Uber and Lyft both operate in Vancouver. Evo Car Share and Modo are popular local options for longer trips or inter-venue travel.
Walking distance from the anchor venue. Lots of hotel options across every price point. The easiest pick for out-of-towners.
A short Skytrain or cab ride to downtown. More local, more affordable, great coffee and food. Good if you want a neighbourhood feel.
Festival hotel discount codes will be published closer to May -- subscribe to the newsletter to be notified.
One of the great urban parks in the world. Seawall walk, totem poles, beaches. Don't miss it.
Public market, breweries, artist studios. 20 min walk from downtown, or hop the Aquabus.
Grouse Mountain gondola or the Capilano Suspension Bridge if you have a weekend morning.
Cross-border travelers from Seattle, SF, LA, and Toronto are a core audience. Halloween weekend gives you Friday through Sunday. The Weekend Pass covers all of it: Friday opening party, Saturday full day plus the film festival, Sunday full day and closing party. Arrive Friday, leave Monday.
