Pop-up plazas

We’ve partnered with business improvement associations (BIAs), local businesses, non-profit organizations, and community organizations to create more than 20 pop-up plazas in neighbourhood hubs throughout Vancouver in response to COVID-19. 

Pop-up plazas have been embraced by communities as outdoor spaces to socialize, share a coffee or a meal, enjoy a small concert, or simply sit and rest. 

As temporary spaces, most pop-up plazas include simple design and amenities. In partnership with plaza stewards and the broader community, we’re taking steps to upgrade a number of pop-up plazas to become long-term, higher-quality plazas that reflect and serve their communities.

What's happeningHelp shape upgrades coming to select pop-up plazas

Your input on the proposed upgrades and design concepts will inform how these spaces evolve to become long-term, higher-quality, semi-permanent plazas.

Share your input on the following pop-up plazas: 

  • Kamloops St and Hastings St
  • Ontario St and 5th Ave

Take the survey until June 30.
