City of Vancouver

Our plan for restarting our services and re-opening some facilities aligns with the phased approach as outlined in the provincial government’s plan and considers public health direction. Park Board community centres, fitness centres, and indoor and outdoor pools and other facilities, along with civic theatres and library branches, still remain closed. However, to date, some facilities have reopened and services have resumed including:

• VanDusen Botanical Garden
• Golf courses
• Tennis and pickleball courts
• Off-leash dog parks
• Parking lots at parks and beaches (not including Stanley Park and English Bay)
• Starting May 25, the Vancouver Public Library opened a computer lab in Central library’s Alice MacKay Room, offering 45-minute appointments for eight patrons at a time, with space for physically distancing
