“This year the ‘car free’ vision will continue to work with partners that have supported us in previous years, provide more accessibility, and foster relationships within our community,” Car Free Vancouver said, in a release.

The event has been an annual tradition since 2008, when Vancouverites are encouraged to park their car and pound the pavement for a day filled with entertainment, street food and local art.
